Modhelper improvements (#1480) * Improvements in module_helper - added `ModuleHelperException` to handle problems specific to ModuleHelper - updated `module_fails_on_exception` for `ModuleHelperException` - `StateMixin`: composed names of state methods are now calculated instead of fixed. - `CmdMixin`: added `run_command_fixed_options` to pass some parameters on every call * Improvements in module_helper - Named deprecations: ability to declare a `dict` of deprecations indexed by names, allowing module maintainer to trigger them by those names, and also allowing the module user to acknowledge them in a similar way. - Adding `ack_named_deprecations` to module's `argument_spec` when they exist. - Providing doc fragment for `ack_named_deprecations`. - Added method `__quit_module__` providing a hook for code that needs to be run when quitting the module. - Created convenience classes combining `ModuleHelper`, `StateMixin`, `CmdMixin`. * fixed validation * fixed validation * changelog fragment * Apply suggestions from code review Co-authored-by: Felix Fontein <felix@fontein.de> * Improvement on Named Deprecations Per the comments in PR, we want to expose a call to a ``deprecate`` method on the module code, so that pylint can properly perform its static analysis on deprecations. This prompted a revamp of the named deprecation feature. * Use .get() instead of [] for the param to ack named deprecations. * Changes from suggestions in the PR * removed named deprecations * Update changelogs/fragments/1480-module-helper-improvements.yml Co-authored-by: Felix Fontein <felix@fontein.de> * Update plugins/module_utils/module_helper.py Co-authored-by: Felix Fontein <felix@fontein.de>
