Before this patch, if config was ['/some/path'] then it would enter the
else block and config would be set to [].
The regression this patch fixes was introduced by 700db154.
now assures it is always a list of paths and not just assumes it
this avoids issues of parsing a 'string path' and picking up '/' as
a valid path for plugin loader
I was surprised to see complete file content in the (JSON) task output when
in diff-mode. Since we see the diff anyhow, there's no need to send everything
on screen.
`ansible_failed_task`:
Contains the task data, essentially a serialized view of the Task() object.
`ansible_failed_result`:
Contains the result of the task failure, which is identical in function
to registering the result. Doing so automatically like this saves the user
from having to register every result in a block and then trying to figure
out which result had the failure
Similar to the way try/except/finally work, these variables will not be
available in the `always` portion of a block unless there is a corresponding
`rescue` first.
Fixes#12341
The changes to chown/chmod were broken on Mac (-R was being appended to the end of the command- OSX requires it before the file list).
A number of base action remote setup commands were also blindly proceeding without checking for success. Added error raises for unrecoverable failure cases.
If we're not delegating then we change _connection into a local
connection midway through the file but we don't change
_play_context.connection (no need to alter that). When we later check
it in process_remote() we need to know the actual connection, not the
connection that we thought we were going to use at the start of run().
So we have to use _connection.transport in process_remote(). The rest
of the places could use either one (because we have not yet changed to
a local connection) but we go ahead and switch those to
_connection.transport as well to avoid confusion in the future.

* class_only was a keyword arg of get() and all() that was mistakenly
passed on to Plugins. Be sure to strip it from the keyword args
before instantiating Plugins. (Reworked API probably should either
not instantiate Plugins or take the args for the Plugin as a separate
list and a dict.)
* Checking required base_classes was only done in get() and only if
class_only was False (ie: that Plugin was instantiated). This meant
that different plugins could be found depending on whether the call
was to .get() or to all() and whether it was for classes or instances.
Fixed so that required base_classes are always checked.
