Before, there were two Execs that did an `apt-get update`,
`Exec[refresh_apt]` and `Exec[apt_updated]`, which were triggered
by different resources.
This changes gets rid of the first one, and all resources now depend
on `Exec[apt_updated]`.
When pinning packages with apt::preferences_snippet,
we need to make sure these get deployed before an
`apt-get update` is triggered, so pinned packages can
get installed in the right way with a single puppetrun.
The problem I'm facing is that the sanity checks prevent one from
using a simple:
apt::preferences_snippet { "bla": ensure => absent }
So, first set a default value for the `priority' parameter, so
that it's not required anymore. Second, add a sanity check to
error out when priority is not set, to get the safe old behaviour.
Then, wrap all sanity checks about arguments within
a "if $ensure == 'present'" block.
Since Debian Squeeze, apt supports a .d directory for preferences
(pinning). Simplify management by just placing files inside this .d
directory.
This removes the need for concat and concat::fragment resources, so
removes the dependency on the concat module. It also removes the need
for a moduledir that was needed for the concat module magic, so we also
get rid of the dependency on the common module.

This is implemented by adding a "package" parameter to apt::preferences_snippet,
so that define names can be kept unique while the package names are
not necessarily.
Closes: Redmine#3468.
Currently, setting the $custom_preferences variable to false fails
because of the /etc/apt/preferences concatenated_file being re-defined.
Fix this by setting dependencies on the resource only when we expect to
create the /etc/apt/preferences file. Also, since there is no "ensure"
parameter to concatenated_file, use a simple file resource to ensure
that it is removed.

Simplifications: make apt_conf_snippet repeat less code, make code that
generates sources.list more concise.
Remove all inline content in favor of templates and static files.
The ability to include sources for static files was needed for
the main 'preferences' file, so it was added to the preferences_snippet
define.
