Typo fix
Previous changes addressed a corner case, which unfortunately introduced
another bug. This patch adds a new flag to the host state (did_rescue) which
is set to true when the rescue portion of a block completes. This flag is
then checked in _check_failed_state() when the fail_state != FAILED_NONE.
This lead to the discovery of another bug - current strategies are not advancing
hosts to ITERATING_COMPLETE after doing a peek at the next task, leaving the
host state in the run_state of the final task. To address this, before gathering
the list of failed hosts in StrategyBase.run(), a final pass through the iterator
for all hosts is done to ensure each host is in its final state. This way, no
strategy derived from StrategyBase has to worry about it and it's handled.

* Have template action plugin call do_template
Avoids all the magic done for 'inline templating' for ansible plays.
renamed _do_template to do_template in templar to make externally accessible.

* added backwards compat as per feedback
This commit extends YAML linting by enabling standard rules from the
`yamllint` tool [1]. Since syntax errors and key duplicates are already
checked since 4d48711, this change only adds detection for cosmetic
problems. It also narrows checks to the test/ dir only.
The main goal is to prevent future problems to enter the code base
without being noticed. While it would be a huge effort to be PEP8
compliant, it is relatively easy to have correct YAML style *now* and
prevent future errors by enabling linting.
Note: for those (like me) caring about code attribution: use `git blame
-w` to ignore whitespace-only changes.
Note: I disabled some linting checks (such as indentation), they can be
enforced in the future if needed. Similarly, current checks can also be
disabled. See the `.yamllint` file.

This change corrects problems reported by the `yamllint` linter.
Since key duplication problems were removed in 4d48711, this commit
mainly fixes trailing spaces and extra empty lines at beginning/end of
files.
* Added test for sequenced-name instance generation (num_instances)
* Added param-check tags to tests that only do argument checking
Should be merged AFTER ansible/ansible-modules-core#4276
* ROADMAP updates
* Formatting - Especially the first section
* Reno Release notes is out of scope (I believe?)
* Change "Speed up make webdocs to stretched Goal - As I don't believe we currently know *how* we can achieve this
* Removed the word `Hardening` as it implies security, which isn't something we are actively working on in 2.3
When loading an include statically, we previously were simply doing a
copy() of the TaskInclude object, which recurses up the parents creating
a new lineage of objects. This caused problems when used inside load_list_of_blocks
as the new parent Block of the new TaskInclude was not actually in the list
of blocks being operated on. In most circumstances, this did not cause a
problem as the new parent block was a proper copy, however when used in
combination with PlaybookInclude (which copies conditionals to the list of
blocks loaded) this untracked parent was not being properly updated, leading
to tasks being run improperly.
Fixes#18206
