  • marks syntax-check rule as unskippable
  • extends documentation of the rule in order to explain its special status and hint on which directions the user can take to avoid it
  • assures unskippable rules are not advertised for use in skip_list or warn_list

Fixes: #1594

It still feels a bit strange that failing the "syntax" check prevents any other errors from being reported. And I placed the syntax part in quotes because Ansible does a lot more in its syntax check. So even if the playbook is valid as far as the syntax goes, the user does not get any diagnostics back.

But this is only weakly related to this PR, and this PR is indeed accurately described the current state of affairs.
