Jira (FACT-1846) inconsistent results between facter and puppet facts

Title: Message Title

Tested the above example with puppet-agent 6.20.0, facter 3.14.14.

Instead of puppet facts find, we use puppet facts show. This action is more configurable (supports all the arguments that facter does, and can be called to retrieve only a fact or a list of facts).

facter -p | grep nil_test

As a side note, the -p option is obsolete in facter 4 and will be removed.
