The CX Gen 2 and CPX Gen 1 types are deprecated and will be removed from
the API at the end of the year. This replaces all usages in our docs, so
users do not have to figure it out themselves.

##### SUMMARY
Because the location of a server is not mandatory for creating a server,
we must also check server type deprecation after server creation.
##### ISSUE TYPE
- Bugfix Pull Request
##### COMPONENT NAME
server
[Server Types](https://docs.hetzner.cloud/reference/cloud#server-types)
now depend on
[Locations](https://docs.hetzner.cloud/reference/cloud#locations).
- We added a new `locations` property to the [Server
Types](https://docs.hetzner.cloud/reference/cloud#server-types)
resource. The new property defines a list of supported
[Locations](https://docs.hetzner.cloud/reference/cloud#locations) and
additional per
[Locations](https://docs.hetzner.cloud/reference/cloud#locations)
details such as deprecations information.
- We deprecated the `deprecation` property from the [Server
Types](https://docs.hetzner.cloud/reference/cloud#server-types)
resource. The property will gradually be phased out as per
[Locations](https://docs.hetzner.cloud/reference/cloud#locations)
deprecations are being announced. Please use the new per
[Locations](https://docs.hetzner.cloud/reference/cloud#locations)
deprecation information instead.
See our
[changelog](https://docs.hetzner.cloud/changelog#2025-09-24-per-location-server-types)
for more details.

##### SUMMARY
The documentation states that all our returned resource ids are
integers, this change aligns our modules with the docs.
The impact of this change should be minimal, as ids are used for
identification purposes by directly forwarding the values (no
transformation of the data is done).
##### ISSUE TYPE
- Bugfix Pull Request
##### COMPONENT NAME
All modules
##### SUMMARY
The alias removal was planned for the version 5.0.0, but I forgot to
remove the alias before cutting the 5.0.0 release (the sanity check only
failed after the release pull request was merged).
Since this is the second time I forgot to remove the deprecated alias, I
will cut a patch release, including this breaking change, as soon as
possible, so we still consider this part of the 5.0.0 release.

While we wait a long time on the `create_server` actions, we only wait 2
minutes on any follow up actions like `start_server` or
`attach_network`. This is sometimes not enough. This commit adds a longer
wait timeout for the `next_actions` returned after creating the server.

##### SUMMARY
Replace the constant poll interval of 1 second, with a truncated
exponential back off algorithm with jitter.
Below is a suite of poll interval (in seconds) generated by the new
algorithm:
```
1.49
2.14
5.46
6.51
6.57
5.57
5.98
7.13
6.59
7.10
5.54
5.03
6.56
5.96
6.72
7.21
7.05
5.31
5.60
6.33
6.82
5.42
6.08
6.60
TOTAL: 140.77
```
##### SUMMARY
Some action waiting time have been set to an arbitrary number, which
could force the users to wait for too long, while we could have raised a
timeout.
This changes the arbitrary numbers with rough estimate based on the
average actions time and some leeway.
##### SUMMARY
Renamed the `allow_deprecated_image` to `image_allow_deprecated`
argument to ensure the `image` related options use the same namespace.
This is backward compatible, as we introduce a new alias for the old
option name.
##### SUMMARY
- Allow passing either the name or the ID of a resource to the different
arguments of the server module.
- Split the code into multiple smaller function and improve the code.
- Improve the module arguments documentation.
- Refactor and cleanups.
##### SUMMARY
Since we only support python >=3.8, the `to_native` python2/3
compatibility function is not needed anymore. We only keep it for
printing a traceback free exception message. Where a type conversion is
needed, we use the built-in `str()` function.
##### SUMMARY
This simplifies the name of the modules from
`hetzner.hcloud.hcloud_firewall` to `hetzner.hcloud.firewall`. While
maintaining backward compatibility with the old names.
Further changes such as updating the test or the documentation will be
done in a future PR to maintain the git history when squashing the PRs.
