mitogen_sudo connection plugin and friends are the wrong plugin type for `get_option('become_...')`
ansible_mitogen.plugins.connection contains 3 "connections" that aren't connections in the Ansible world view
mitogen_doasmitogen_sudomitogen_su
In Ansible land these would be become plugins. This wasn't a problem, but may become a problem now. I'm moving the PlaybookSpec to Ansible's plugin options API, but the options become_exe and become_flags are associated with become plugins and these plugins are connection plugins.
As a result the tests in tests/ansible/integration/stub_connections/all.yml fail with

I believe this is because Mitogen predates Ansible become plugins, introduced in Ansible 2.8 (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/50991). This matches when ansible.plugins.connection.ConnectionBase.become_methods was removed. This may have bearing on #1072.
