Fix all deprecated module_utils imports before ansible-core 2.24 removal
SUMMARY
Fixes all deprecated ansible.module_utils imports across the entire collection that will be removed in ansible-core 2.24.
This PR comprehensively addresses deprecation warnings reported in #686 by updating import statements in 20 files to use the new recommended import paths, and removes 8 unused test utility files that contained deprecated imports.
Deprecated imports replaced:

Files deleted (8 unused test utility files):
These files are dead code - none of them are imported or used anywhere in the test suite or the collection. Removing them also addresses Python 2.7 compatibility concerns raised in code review, as several contained deprecated imports that would be incorrect to fix for Python 2.
tests/unit/compat/builtins.py
tests/unit/mock/loader.py
tests/unit/mock/path.py
tests/unit/mock/procenv.py
tests/unit/mock/vault_helper.py
tests/unit/mock/yaml_helper.py
tests/unit/modules/conftest.py
tests/unit/modules/utils.py
Completeness verified with:
git grep -n -P '_compat|utils._text|utils.six' -- '*.py' | grep -v yml
This command returns no results, confirming all deprecated imports have been replaced.
Notes on Python 2.7 compatibility:
For modules that may run on Python 2.7 managed hosts (e.g., authorized_key.py, synchronize.py, sysctl.py), Python 2/3 compatible fallbacks were used instead of direct Python 3 replacements:
authorized_key.py: try/except ImportError for urllib.parse.urlparse (falls back to urlparse on Python 2)
synchronize.py: try/except ImportError for shlex.quote (falls back to pipes.quote on Python 2)
sysctl.py: uses sys.version_info to set string_types to str on Python 3 (basestring on Python 2)
Also removes corresponding pylint:ansible-bad-import-from entries from tests/sanity/ignore-2.21.txt and tests/sanity/ignore-2.22.txt where applicable.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Approach:
Each file is fixed in a separate commit for easier code review. The changelog fragment is added in a final commit. Corresponding pylint:ansible-bad-import-from ignore entries in tests/sanity/ignore-2.21.txt and tests/sanity/ignore-2.22.txt are removed in the same commit as the file fix (or the file removal commit).
CI results:
All 59 checks passing (Azure Pipelines sanity, units, lint, Docker, Remote across ansible-core 2.17 through devel, and Zuul ansible/check).

profile_* callbacks: avoid deprecated/deleted functions
SUMMARY
The profile_roles and profile_tasks callbacks define methods playbook_on_setup and playbook_on_stats which have been deleted/deprecated:
playbook_on_stats has been deprecated, v2_playbook_on_stats should be used instead (that one has already been there for many years: ansible/ansible@ba0e532 was added in 2015).
playbook_on_setup has been deleted (ansible/ansible@eec57ec), and its v2 variant was already deleted in 2017: ansible/ansible@59d5481
