Jira (PUP-8290) Allow auto-conversion to Sensitive data type

Title: Message Title

This came up with a customer yesterday. The root of their problem is that you cannot currently combine automatic parameter lookup with Sensitive[T] - casting a value in this way currently fails:

    class myclass (

        Sensitive $parameter = undef

) {

        notice("This parameter should be $sensitive")

... because everything that comes back from the hiera lookup is a string and thus fails type checking.

Henrik Lindberg I fear the Init[T] usage describes above is over-generalized and harder to understand than permitting coercion into Sensitive.
