Jira (PUP-10096) Parameters of resources are base64 encoded in puppetdb if created as raw byte strings by ruby functions

[Josh Cooper (JIRA)]

Title: Message Title

Josh Cooper commented on PUP-10096   Re: Parameters of resources are base64 encoded in puppetdb if created as raw byte strings by ruby functions we all seem to agree is a bad idea and that this should be fixed at the source (in the function in question) To help with that, maybe we can warn if a function returns a ruby string with an ascii-8bit/binary encoding, so that module authors know to either force a non-binary encoding (when it can be determined based on the use case), or force the function to return a Binary puppet string and have it declare that using return_type?
