Refactor #5079: MCX content provider
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/5079

Author: Sandor Szücs
Status: Ready for Checkin
Priority: Normal
Assignee: 
Category: OSX
Target version: 
Affected Puppet version: 
Branch: 


I refactored the MCX content provider to enhance code readability. This is the 
first step to understand the current implementation.

I would like to add a best practice dslocal solution pointed out by the authors 
of "Enterprise Mac Managed Preferences". 
They wrote that you should not use /Local/Default as DB, because it is also 
used as local cache. They further said that you should add an own DB to 
circumvent ping-pong overwrites between central managed MCX and dslocal managed 
MCX.

The patch includes a small change within the spec file, because the error 
handling should be more conform to other puppet providers.
Instead to raise MCXContentProviderException I choose to raise Puppet::Error, 
because macauthorization provider does the same. I hope that is the right Error 
handling.
