Before "short description" was used in most plugins, modules and also
in the new module templates.
ansible-doc was therefore not showing the short description. To fix the
issue the flag was renamed to short_description instead.

'ansible-doc' -l lists most idm modules as 'UNDOCUMENTED'
execute_ipa_commands replces the check mode exit, the loop over the
generated commands and also in the member failure handling for modules
with member support.
ipaadmin_variables are handled by IPAAnsibleModule,
ansible_module.params_get is used to get the parameters and
ansible_module.ipa_connect is used to simplify the module.
There are common parameters in all modules like ipaadmin_principal and
ipaadmin_password. As this list of common parameters will be extended
soon, there is a need to reduce the code and documentation duplicates.
A ModuleDocFragment is added to provide the module documentation for the
common parameters. This is used in the modules with
extends_documentation_fragment.
ansible_freeipa_module has additional ipamodule_base_spec and
get_ipamodule_base_vars. ipamodule_base_spec extends argument_spec in
the module and get_ipamodule_base_vars is used to return a dict
containing the common parameters.
Added code to the ipa* plugins to support Ansible's check_mode, by
means of a clean exit before the execution of the actual list of
commands that would otherwise create/update/delete IPA servers
and/or its resources.
Tests for module ipalocation failed due to missing ipaadmin_password.
Added the variable to the playbooks, and also fixed the examples and
documentation. Some playbooks had identation fixed to two spaces
instead of one for consistency with other modules.
There is a new location management module placed in the plugins folder:
plugins/modules/ipalocation.py
The location module allows to ensure presence or absence of locations.
Here is the documentation for the module:
README-location.md
New example playbooks have been added:
playbooks/location/location-absent.yml
playbooks/location/location-present.yml
New tests for the module:
tests/location/test_location.yml
