Bug #9656: Coalesce pending notifies for service resources that initially
weren't running

Branch:
Is it possible to get Puppet when transitioning a service resource from stopped
to running to coalesce/consume any pending notifies from other resources
otherwise the service gets started, then restarted by the notifies. By starting
it up, the service is going to have picked up whatever changed (config file,
etc.) so the restart is unnecessary.
So given the following manifest snippet:
<pre>
file { "foo":
ensure => file,
content => inline_template("<%= rand %>\n"),
notify => Service["bar"],
}
service { "bar":
ensure => running,
hasstatus => true,
hasrestart => true,
}
</pre>
Assuming the service is stopped already, I see the following when applying the
manifest:
<pre>
---8<---
notice: /File[foo]/content: content changed
'{md5}caf781abcab8e319f3113f8149a8ee9d' to
'{md5}949f3faf5f6830cc3567aac02f1b8e3a'
info: /File[foo]: Scheduling refresh of Service[bar]
debug: Service[bar](provider=redhat): Executing '/sbin/service bar status'
debug: Service[bar](provider=redhat): Executing '/sbin/service bar start'
notice: /Stage[main]//Node[baz]/Service[bar]/ensure: ensure changed 'stopped'
to 'running'
debug: Service[bar](provider=redhat): Executing '/sbin/service bar status'
debug: Service[bar](provider=redhat): Executing '/sbin/service bar restart'
notice: /Stage[main]//Node[baz]/Service[bar]: Triggered 'refresh' from 1 events
</pre>
This is normally not a problem as most software restarts fairly quickly, except
I have some that takes five minutes to start which is bad enough, except now it
takes ten minutes.
