Jira (FACT-570) Remove windows-pr as a Windows gem dependency

[Josh Cooper (JIRA)]

Title: Message Title

Josh Cooper commented on an issue   Re: Remove windows-pr as a Windows gem dependency The change to puppet-win32-ruby was reverted from the 1.9.3 branch, because we don't want to mix the FFI work with older releases, e.g. FOSS 3.6 and PE 3.3. For example, if we have to issue a security patch, we don't want to accidentally pull in the FFI work. A new 1.9.3-x86 branch was created containing the updated windows gems. Newer releases, e.g. FOSS 3.7 and PE 3.4, will pull from there moving forward. Add Comment   Facter / FACT-570 Remove windows-pr as a Windows gem dependency Facter uses the windows-pr gem, and its win32-api dependency, when determining if facter is running as root or not. We need to eliminate usages of this gem now that everything is ffi'ed. The code that needs to be replaced is already in puppet, and just needs to be copied over.
