This commit adds some cosmetic functionality. The main two improvements are: * We'll now pay attention to indentation within existing sections, and when we write new settings or update existing ones, we'll match the existing indentation. * When modifying existing settings, the regex now captures a greater portion of the original line and preserves it. Basically, the original whitespacing in the line should remain intact and only the value should be modified. |

INI-file module
This module provides resource types for use in managing INI-style configuration
files. The main resource type is ini_setting, which is used to manage an
individual setting in an INI file. Here's an example usage:
ini_setting { "sample setting":
path => '/tmp/foo.ini',
section => 'foo',
setting => 'foosetting',
value => 'FOO!',
ensure => present,
}
A few noteworthy features:
- The module tries hard not to manipulate your file any more than it needs to. In most cases, it should leave the original whitespace, comments, ordering, etc. perfectly intact.
- Supports comments starting with either '#' or ';'.
- Will add missing sections if they don't exist.
- Supports a "global" section (settings that go at the beginning of the file, before any named sections) by specifying a section name of "".
