It looks like we're currently documenting functions that are marked private (prefixed with an underscore) such as https://certbot.eff.org/docs/api/certbot.crypto_util.html#certbot.crypto_util._load_cert_or_req. I do not think we should do this because the functionality is private, should not be used, and including it in our docs just adds visual noise.
This PR stops us from documenting private code and fixes up `tools/sphinx-quickstart.sh` so we don't document it in future modules.
* Do not document private code.
* Don't document private members in the future.
A lot of Certbot's files don't have API documentation which is fixed by this PR. To do this, from the top level certbot directory I ran:
```
sphinx-apidoc -Me -o docs/api certbot
```
I then merged the resulting `modules.rst` file with `docs/api.rst`.
The old plugin at https://github.com/marcan/certbot-external says it's obsolete and points people to https://github.com/EnigmaBridge/certbot-external-auth. The new plugin is also an installer.
I also removed the reference to #2782 about us adding similar functionality since that's been done for a long time. We could reference our manual plugin instead, but I think that devalues their plugin a bit which I don't think is necessary or correct as it has different features.
Summary of changes in this PR:
- Refactor files involved in the `certbot` module to be of a similar structure to every other package; that is, inside a directory inside the main repo root (see below).
- Make repo root README symlink to `certbot` README.
- Pull tests outside of the distributed module.
- Make `certbot/tests` not be a module so that `certbot` isn't added to Python's path for module discovery.
- Remove `--pyargs` from test calls, and make sure to call tests from repo root since without `--pyargs`, `pytest` takes directory names rather than package names as arguments.
- Replace mentions of `.` with `certbot` when referring to packages to install, usually editably.
- Clean up some unused code around executing tests in a different directory.
- Create public shim around main and make that the entry point.

* refactor certbot/ and certbot/tests/ to use the same structure as the other packages
* git grep -lE "\-e(\s+)\." | xargs sed -i -E "s/\-e(\s+)\./-e certbot/g"
* git grep -lE "\.\[dev\]" | xargs sed -i -E "s/\.\[dev\]/certbot[dev]/g"
* git grep -lE "\.\[dev3\]" | xargs sed -i -E "s/\.\[dev3\]/certbot[dev3]/g"
* Remove replacement of certbot into . in install_and_test.py
* copy license back out to main folder
* remove linter_plugin.py and CONTRIBUTING.md from certbot/MANIFEST.in because these files are not under certbot/
* Move README back into main folder, and make the version inside certbot/ a symlink
* symlink certbot READMEs the other way around
* move testdata into the public api certbot zone
* update source_paths in tox.ini to certbot/certbot to find the right subfolder for tests
* certbot version has been bumped down a directory level
* make certbot tests directory not a package and import sibling as module
* Remove unused script cruft
* change . to certbot in test_sdists
* remove outdated comment referencing a command that doesn't work
* Install instructions should reference an existing file
* update file paths in Dockerfile
* some package named in tox.ini were manually specified, change those to certbot
* new directory format doesn't work easily with pyargs according to http://doc.pytest.org/en/latest/goodpractices.html#tests-as-part-of-application-code
* remove other instance of pyargs
* fix up some references in _release.sh by searching for ' . ' and manual check
* another stray . in tox.ini
* fix paths in tools/_release.sh
* Remove final --pyargs call, and now-unnecessary call to modules instead of local files, since that's fixed by certbot's code being one layer deeper
* Create public shim around main and make that the entry point
* without pyargs, tests cannot be run from an empty directory
* Remove cruft for running certbot directly from main
* Have main shim take real arg
* add docs/api file for main, and fix up main comment
* Update certbot/docs/install.rst
