The Puppet type won't automatically derive any onlyif conditions, but
Augeas won't touch a file of your tree changes don't change the contents
of the file (e.g., because you set a node to a value it already has)

The lens splits multiple files into multiple file nodes, i.e. what you
need to create is a structure like this:
/files/etc/logrotate.d/httpd/rule
file/ = /var/log/httpd/*log
file/ = /var/www/vhosts/*/logs/*log
...
In augtool, the following commands accomplish that:
# Set R as a convenience
defvar r /files/etc/logrotate.d/httpd/rule
print $r
## Use this as the changes in your puppet type
# Remove existing file entries
rm $r/file
# Create two new empty file nodes as the first children of R
ins file before $r/*[1]
ins file before $r/*[1]
# Set them to some value
set $r/file[1] f1
set $r/file[2] f2
print $r
save
print /augeas//error
