    Invoke multiple Netmiko methods at once, and return their output, as list.

    methods
        A list of dictionaries with the following keys:

        - ``kwargs``: dictionary of arguments to be sent to the Netmiko method.

    kwargs
        Key-value dictionary with the connection details (when not running
        under a Proxy Minion).
