Computer objects in Mac OS X.

I looked at overriding the 'host' type, but Computer really is quite a distinct 
concept to Host in Mac OS X DirectoryServices.

The primary reason for this type existing is so that an upcoming MCX type that 
allows you to attach policy to local user/group/computer objects can work.

Usage of this type is most commonly going to be:

<pre>
computer { "localhost":
  ip_address => "127.0.0.1",
  en_address => $macaddress,
}
</pre>

but the directoryservice provider may support modification of remote nodes in 
the future a la the ldap provider, so it seemed best to do the work now.

Patch attached against 0.24.x
