* Change ansible-doc usage to show -a is for internal use
ansible-doc -a is for testing that documentation is sane. It should not
be used by normal users in production. The main reason for this is that
it is designed to fail if there are any undocumented modules or plugins.
This is good for testing that all plugins we ship are documented. It is
not good for end users who may have undocumented third-party plugins.

The config variables defined with eval, like INVENTORY_IGNORE_EXTS,
are not stored properly once the eval is processed.
This causes references to the constant to still have the eval in the
value.

(cherry picked from commit e5d247fdc0)
* Update docker inventory to use APIClient
docker-py has been updated, and the `Client` class no longer
exists. We use the new `APIClient` class.
To provide graceful failure when docker-py is not installed,
we need to create a dummy `Client` class so that the inventory
script will get as far as displaying a useful error message
Before
```
$ contrib/inventory/docker.py --pretty
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "contrib/inventory/docker.py", line 418, in <module>
class AnsibleDockerClient(Client):
NameError: name 'Client' is not defined
```
After
```
$ contrib/inventory/docker.py --pretty
Failed to import docker-py. Try `pip install docker-py` - cannot import name Client
```
* docker inventory configuration file location
Allow docker.yml to live next to docker.py, as well as in the
current directory
(cherry picked from commit f9a179f770)
since we want to make namespaced facts drop ansible_ prefix but don't have the
time before release to perfect this feature, we are going to postpone it for now
until we have the resources to fix this issue. That way we won't have people relying
on the 'incorrect' names for a release.

This allows to use a pathlist in the ansible.cfg:
[default]
inventory = path/inventory:other_path/inventory
Since ansible allows to use --inventory on CLI more then once, we should also support a pathlist in the config.
