operatingsystemrelease and osfamily facts do not work

Hey marcus - the patch looks great. So the ticket covers also the 
operatingsystemrelease fact as well, which at the moment is using lsb as well. 
I would be awesome if you could solve that as well :-).

Bug #10271: Amazon Linux operatingsytem and operatingsystemrelease and osfamily 
facts do not work

Affected Facter version: 1.6.4


I am using the latest AMI (ami-7f418316) for Amazon Linux and it has no 
/etc/redhat-release

In the documentation 
(http://docs.amazonwebservices.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/index.html?LinuxAMIUserGuide.html)

it states that /etc/system-release should be used to determine current release:

<pre>
Amazon linux AMIs contain a /etc/system-release file that specifies the current 
release that is installed. This file is updated through yum and is part of the 
system-release rpm.

Following is an example of /etc/system-release file:

# cat /etc/system-release
Amazon Linux AMI release 2011.09
      

An Amazon Linux AMI also contains a machine readable version of the 
/etc/system-release file found in /etc/system-release-cpe and follows the CPE 
specification from MITRE (CPE).
</pre>

<pre>
# cat /etc/system-release
Amazon Linux AMI release 2011.09
</pre>

It looks like release version is 2011.09, I am not sure how to map that to 
rhel5/rhel6
