Other bug fixes and changes:

Update to version 2.7.6
- Added log message at -vvvv when using netconf connection listing connection details.

- Moved error in netconf connection plugin from at import to on connection.

bug fixes:
- Security Fix - Some connection exceptions would cause nolog specified on a task to be ignored. If this happened, the task information, including any private information coul d have been displayed to stdout and (if enabled, not the default) logged to a log file specified in ansible.cfg's logpath. Additionally, sites which redirected stdout from ansible runs to a log file may have stored that private information onto disk that way as well. (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/41414)
- Changed the admin_users config option to not include 'admin' by default as admin is frequently used for a non-privileged account (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/41164)
- Changed the output to 'text' for 'show vrf' command as default 'json' output format with respect to 'eapi' transport was failing (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/41470)

- file module - Fix error when running a task which assures a symlink to a nonexistent file exists for the second and subsequent times (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/39558)
- file module - The file module allowed the user to specify src as a parameter when state was not link or hard. This is documented as only applying to state=link or state=hard but in previous Ansible, this could have an effect in rare cornercases. For instance, 'ansible -m file -a 'state=directory path=/tmp src=/var/lib'' would create /tmp/lib. This has been disabled and a warning emitted (will change to an error in Ansible-2.10).
