* Changed 'Control Machine' to 'Control Node' in the documentation. Changing the term 'Control Machine' to 'Control Node', to be in line with the basic concepts here: https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/network/getting_started/basic_concepts.html
Also for both entities; Control/Managed using the same common denominator 'Node' brings consistency.
* Updated reference links to new term.
* Create new documentation pages for httpapi and cliconf
* Add new documentation to plugins toctree and Makefile
* Add DOCUMENTATION to cliconf

* priority setting note in inventory doc
The `ansible_group_priority` variable is also described in *Using Variables* and was given a clarification in issue #41512. The variable is also documented in *Working with Inventory* without the caveat that it needs to be declared on the inventory and not a group_vars file. This change adds that as a note

* Add a porting guide entry for ansible_distribution facts
Switching away from platform.distro() will cause changes sometimes due
to the new code using new sources of information that may be out of sync
with the old ones. Just have to make people aware of that and also what
we are doing to mitigate it when appropriate.
* wordsmithed, added links for new distro backend
* Once cli args are parsed, they're constant. So, save the parsed args
into the global context for everyone else to use them from now on.
* Port cli scripts to use the CLIARGS in the context
* Refactor call to parse cli args into the run() method
* Fix unittests for changes to the internals of CLI arg parsing
* Port callback plugins to use context.CLIARGS
* Got rid of the private self._options attribute
* Use context.CLIARGS in the individual callback plugins instead.
* Also output positional arguments in default and unixy plugins
* Code has been simplified since we're now dealing with a dict rather
than Optparse.Value
Make WinRM security warning more explicit.
Currently the warning is "viewed by anyone", this is a much lower risk than arbitrary command injection. Therefore the risk should be phrased appropriately.

Without this modprobe always reports changed when modprobe-ing a builtin module.
With this, if a kernel module is a builtin, the modprobe module will:
- succeed (without incorrectly reporting changed) if ``state`` is ``present``;
- fail if ``state`` is ``absent``
The failure will have whatever error message modprobe returns when
attempting to remove a builtin module. For example:
``modprobe: ERROR: Module nfs is builtin.``
* Revert "Fix incorrect examples with random filter (#50137)"
This reverts commit 9a7dbd5213.
The correction is incomplete and also based on a 'fix' that was supposed to have been reverted already

This reverts commit ea2b89c7ae.
reverted fix as agreed at the time, but missed by maintainers.

* fix doc sanity issue
* Docs: Add a separate "seealso" section to the module docs
to list related modules and/or related references. This clears up the notes
section for things that are actual notes.
So you can add a section in your module documentation and four types of
references are possible.
seealso:
# Reference by module name
- module: aci_tenant
# Reference by module name, including description
- module: aci_tenant
description: ACI module to create tenants on a Cisco ACI fabric.
# Reference by rST documentation anchor
- ref: aci_guide
description: Detailed information on how to manage your ACI infrastructure using Ansible.
# Reference by Internet resource
- name: APIC Management Information Model reference
description: Complete reference of the APIC object model.

This PR also includes:
- Implements ansible-doc support
- Implements schema support for the seealso options
- Updates to the development documentation
- Rename filter convert_symbols_to_format to rst_ify, cfr the existing html_ify and tty_ify filters
- This makes the existing template a lot easier to read and fixes the confusion I had myself rereading the template (again).
- We fixed the possible suboption types (which was limited to 'bool' only)
* Use latest stable instead of devel docs
* inventory plugins: try auto before ini
auto plugin should run before ini to avoid ini being able to parse
some plugin configuration YAML files successfully.
