- Modernize code for Python 3.7+. This includes code reformatting, and adding new checks to CI, including a type checker (mypy). Most of the code does not have type hints yet, but now it is possible to add typing hints and have these validated (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10285, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10886, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10891, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10892, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10897, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10899, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10902, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10903, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10904, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10907, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10908, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10909, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10939, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10940, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10941, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10942, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10945, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10947, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10958, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10959, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10968, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10969, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10970, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10971, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10973, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10974, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10975, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10976, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10977, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10978, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10979, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10980, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10981, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10992, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10993, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10997, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10999, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/11015, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/11016, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/11017).

Removed Features (previously deprecated)
----------------------------------------
- Ansible-core 2.16 is no longer supported. This also means that the collection now requires Python 3.7+ (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10884).
- bearychat - the module has been removed as the chat service is no longer available (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10883).
- cmd_runner module utils - the parameter ``ignore_value_none`` to ``CmdRunner.__call__()`` has been removed (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10883).
- cmd_runner_fmt module utils - the parameter ``ctx_ignore_none`` to argument formatters has been removed (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10883).
- facter - the module has been replaced by ``community.general.facter_facts`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10883).
- mh.deco module utils - the parameters ``on_success`` and ``on_failure`` of ``cause()`` have been removed; use ``when="success"`` and ``when="failure"`` instead (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10883).
- opkg - the value ``""`` for the option ``force`` is no longer allowed. Omit ``force`` instead (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10883).
- pacemaker_cluster - the option ``state`` is now required (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10883).
- pure module utils - the modules using this module utils have been removed from community.general 3.0.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10883).

- yaml callback plugin - the deprecated plugin has been removed. Use the default callback with ``result_format=yaml`` instead (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10883).
Security Fixes
--------------
- keycloak_user - the parameter ``credentials[].value`` is now marked as ``no_log=true``. Before it was logged by Ansible, unless the task was marked as ``no_log: true``. Since this parameter can be used for passwords, this resulted in credential leaking (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/11000, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/11005).

- merge_variables lookup plugin - avoid deprecated functionality from ansible-core 2.19 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10566).

- wsl connection plugin - avoid deprecated ansible-core paramiko import helper, import paramiko directly instead (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/10515, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10531).
