Bug #4756: Providers no longer respect missing features

I'm testing on FreeBSD, which does not have the manages_passwords feature. The
following manifest attempts to set the password, despite not actually knowing
how.
<pre>
user { "testuser":
ensure => present,
password => anything,
}
</pre>
On 0.25.x, this gives a message like "info: /User[testuser]: Provider pw does
not support features manages_passwords; not managing attribute password".
This is only an issue for cases where a feature is required for a property to
exist at all. The case where only certain values of the property depend on a
feature (eg. ensure => "1.2.3" for packages requires versionable) still works.
This appears to have been introduced in
commit:e5478d4ff0510e637ecec69f8b2fc7ef844ba5c0.
