Feature #1981: Facter should support designating values as untrusted

Affected Facter version: 


As we make it easier to inject data into Facter, it's quite possible that a 
normal user could eventually be given the right to add data to Facter.  This 
presents the possibility of a normal user affecting the behaviour of Puppetd, 
effectively providing a means of exploit.

We need some way to either only allow values provided by root, or a way of 
designating values as trusted vs. untrusted.

Then Puppet probably needs some way to support the difference, ignoring 
untrusted values or something similar.
