Bug #2771: file function should use puppet://url/module/ nomenclature, not
absolute paths

I had figured something like this would work to set the value of $cryptstring
to the contents of the file at the specified location under
/etc/puppet/modules/users/files/xxx:
<pre>
class users::root {
if $layer {
$cryptstring =
file("puppet:///modules/users/root.$operatingsystem.$layer")
}
else {
$cryptstring =
file("puppet:///modules/users/root.$operatingsystem.server")
}
user { "root":
password => $cryptstring
}
}
</pre>
But instead I got:
<pre>
err: Files must be fully qualified at
/Users/eric/Sandbox/puppet/etc/modules/users/manifests/root.pp:6 on node
leterel.foo.com
</pre>
It works if I specify a full filesystem path instead of the puppet:/// url, but
I think this is less than optimal, because filesystem paths move around a lot
(from sandbox to production for example) and the fileserver mechanism's used
pretty much everywhere else I can find for this sort of thing. I am working up
a patch to add a Puppet::Parser::Files.find_file analogous to the existing
Puppet::Parser::Files.find_template but wanted to file this redmine to (a) get
a sanity check that this is worth changing (and if my proposal is moving in the
right direction) and (b) have a ticket to name the branch after.
