##### SUMMARY

Since https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/57145, `elements=str` in Arguments_spec raises an error. We need to use elements="str" instead. I've done a workaround for VMware ( ansible-collections/vmware#235 ), but we may see more cases like that in the future. Is this an expected behaviour?

```python
        associable_object_types=dict(
            type='list',
             elements=str,
        ),
```

The error:
