A bugfix backported to 2.5 also contained the new toggle option. The release
manager approved backporting this added feature to the dot release, so updating
devel to accurately reflect when the fetaure was added.

* remove extra lines
* aws_ec2 inventory plugin - fix path matching logic
* Inventory caching
* Add inventory caching for virtualbox
* Don't populate cache for virtualbox with stdout, use a dict of inventory instead
* Fix error creating the cache dir if it doesn't exist
* Keep cache default False and set to True in VariableManager __init__
* Check all groups before determining if a host is ungrouped.
aws_ec2 is an inventory plugin intended to replace uses of the `contrib/inventory/ec2.py`
inventory script.
For advanced grouping, please use the `constructed` inventory plugin.
Previously if a child's group vars section was defined before the
child group itself, an edge case would be hit where the state of the
pending declaration would process as var and therefore drop the
child pending declaration context. This would result in the group
vars defined for the parent group being out of scope for the child
group.
Example:
[web:children]
appnodes
proxies
[web:vars]
deployment_type=prod
[appnodes:vars]
foo_var=true
[appnodes]
appnodes[1:3].example.com
[proxies:vars]
bar_var=true
[proxies]
proxies[1:3].example.com
Previously the deployment_type variable would be out of scope for
both the appnodes and proxies groups. This patch fixes that.

better fragment merge for options
fixed proxy command
restore ini for proxy
normalized options
moved pipelining to class
updates for host_key_checking
restructured mixins
* fix typo
* Automatically loads and executes an inventory plugin specified by a standard YAML inventory config file containing a `plugin` key at its root.
* Moved inventory PluginLoader to a shared global instance.
* fixed module generation
added missing lookup page
point to plugins when plugins

fixes#31382fixes#31365
* updated docs
- for devs:
- added inventory/vars section
- made some updates to general section and other plugin types
- for users:
- added 'user' plugin section to start describing the plugins
- docs on types, what they are and how to use
- removed ref to deleted AUTHORS file
- corrected several typos/headers
- added descriptions to config.rst template
- ignore generated files for cli/plugins and config
- remove new generated files on `make clean`
- moved details from devguid and intro doc to plugin specific pages
- pretied up lookup notes
- changed precedence ref to not conflict config
- removed duplicate config data, as config is autogenerated and up to date
- put new plugins under playbooks
- added `pass` cause rst/python dislikes fractions
- removed dupe in .gitignore, alpha sorted to avoid moar dupes
- added try cause rst/python freaks out
* generate plugins into their own dir
only do plugins that support docs
use toctree from main plugins page
* Using docstrings conflicts with the standard use of docstrings
* PYTHON_OPTIMIZE=2 will omit docstrings. Using docstrings makes future
changes to the plugin and module code subject to the requirement that we
ensure it won't be run with optimization.
