Recent pylint versions warn against the use of an 'else' in a
'try-except' block if using a 'return' on the 'except' part is is the
idom used by ansible-freeipa when retrieving IPA data objects.
This change removes the usage of the 'else:' in such cases, and modify
the templates so that new modules do not have the same issue in the
future.
ansible-test with ansible-2.14 is adding a lot of new tests to ensure
that the documentation section and the agument spec is complete. Needed
changes:
DOCUMENTATION section
- `type: str` needs to be set for string parameters
- `type: list` needs to be set for list parameters
- `elements: str` needs to be given for list of string parameters
- `required` tags need to be fixed according to the `argument_spec`
- `author` needs to be given with the github user also: `Name (@user)`
argument_spec
- `elements="str"` needs to be added to all list of string parameters
The `copyright` date is extended with `-2022`.
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'
Ensuring absence of members (services and targets) that do not exist may
not fail as they are not members for servicedelegationtarget and
servicedelegationrule.
servicedelegation_normalize_principals in ansible_freeipa_module has
been extended with a check_exists argument that defaults to False. state
== "present" is now given as this argument to turn on the element exists
check only if elements should be added.
There is a new servicedelegationtarget management module placed in the plugins
folder:
plugins/modules/ipaservicedelegationtarget.py
The servicedelegationtarget module allows to ensure presence and absence of
servicedelegationtargets and servicedelegationtarget members.
Here is the documentation of the module:
README-servicedelegationtarget.md
New example playbooks have been added:
playbooks/servicedelegationtarget/servicedelegationtarget-absent.yml
playbooks/servicedelegationtarget/servicedelegationtarget-member-absent.yml
playbooks/servicedelegationtarget/servicedelegationtarget-member-present.yml
playbooks/servicedelegationtarget/servicedelegationtarget-present.yml
New tests for the module:
tests/servicedelegationtarget/test_servicedelegationtarget.yml
tests/servicedelegationtarget/test_servicedelegationtarget_client_context.yml
tests/servicedelegationtarget/test_servicedelegationtarget_hostprincipal.yml
