Feature #4837: Puppet function to specify contents without templating.

Given that:

1. Each source => puppet:/// entry in a client catalog involves a metadata 
request roundtrip to the server on catalog application
2. Such resource application fails to work when the server is offline
3. The template function does template evaluation
4. The file function takes absolute paths

There isn't a good way right now to refer to a file inside a module and specify 
the contents of that file in the catalog (ie via content => ).

I propose we modify the file function such that if the specified path isn't 
absolute, it considers the path to be relative to the files subdirectory of the 
given module.
