same host defined in different groups which in turn are defined
in different ini files in an inventory directory

0. Uncomment the test.
1. Test fails.
2. Make vars unique per file in test inventory files.
3. Modify token addition to not ast.literal_eval(v) a variable containing a hash.
4. Modify vars to have an escape in test inventory file.
5. Catch exceptions explicitly. Any unknown exceptions should be a bug.
6. Test passes.
Allow security tokens and profiles to be used as arguments
to the 'common' ec2 modules
Mostly refactoring to provide two new methods,
`get_aws_connection_info`, which results in a dict that can be
passed through to the boto `connect_to_region` calls, and
`connect_to_aws` that can pass that dict through to the
`connect_to_region` method of the appropriate module.
Tidied up some variable names
Works around boto/boto#2100
profiles don't work with boto < 2.24, but this detects for that
and fails with an appropriate message. It is designed to work
if profile is not passed but boto < 2.24 is installed.
Modifications to allow empty aws auth variables to be passed
(this is useful if wanting to have the keys as an optional
parameter in ec2 calls - if set, use this value, if not set,
use boto config or env variables)
Reworked validate_certs improvements to work with refactoring
Added documentation for profile and security_token to affected modules

This can happen if the server has a NICKLEN setting which is less
than the length of the specified nick. With this patch we now grab
that nick and use it moving forward, instead of failing because we
didn't get back the one we specified, in the connection response.
In order to simplify the workflow with the GCE modules, it's now
possible to add the parameters and project name as arguments to the
various GCE modules.
The inventory plugin also returns the IP of the host in
`ansible_ssh_host` so that you don't have to specify IPs into the
inventory file.
Some update to the documentation are also added.
Closes#5583.
It came up that fixing this unit test may relate to another ticket that is open. This work allows us to uncomment this unit test by fixing how we pars variables allowing a quoted variable to contain a '#'.
Work also went into cleaning up some of the test data to clarify what was working.
Lastly work went into cleaning up formatting so that the code is easily read.
