Fix module validation checks and remove old params (#39926)

This PR includes:
- Fixes to the majority of module validation issues
  (deliberate inconsistencies between docs and arg_spec)
- Removal of deprecated parameters 'method' and 'protocols'
- A few typos in the documentation

There are still some left-over validation errors, some are deliberate
(like doc strings as default to indicate ranges, etc.)
