Michael DeHaan 79f41d9c1a This makes the module args parser more functional to eliminate side effects and eliminiates the 'return None' error path
to make sure we are handling more use cases.  Some paths are not yet complete, including most likely handling of the 'raw'
module.

There are several ways a module and argument set can be expressed:
# legacy form (for a shell command)
- action: shell echo hi
# common shorthand for local actions vs delegate_to
- local_action: shell echo hi
# most commonly:
- copy: src=a dest=b
# legacy form
- action: copy src=a dest=b
# complex args form, for passing structured data
- copy:
src: a
dest: b
# gross, but technically legal
- action:
module: copy
args:
src: a
dest: b
This class has some of the logic to canonicalize these into the form
- module: <module_name>
delegate_to: <optional>
args: <args>
Args may also be munged for certain shell command parameters.
