Rafael Guterres Jeffman 1c4b50fa51 modules: Do not hide errors using IPA *_show command with Exception
When searching for objects with *_show IPA API command, most plugins
were hiding errors other than "ipalib_errors.NotFound" by handling the
broad exception Exception instead.

This patch uses "ipalib_errors.NotFound" whenever "*_show" is used so
that the only exception handled is when an object is not found. Other
errors will not be handled making the module break as expected.

Writing a new Ansible FreeIPA module

A ansible-freeipa module should have:

  • Code:

    • A module file placed in plugins/modules/<ipa_module_name>.py
  • Documentation:

    • README-<module_name>.md file in the root directory and linked from the main README.md
    • Example playbooks in playbooks/<module_name>/ directory
  • Tests:

    • Test cases (also playbooks) defined in tests/<module_name>/test_<something>.yml. It's ok to have multiple files in this directory.

Use the script utils/new_module to create the stub files for a new module.
