Feature #19514: Provide in scope secured and validated data for use in manifests

Puppet lacks a secure identifier to identify a node in manifests.  Using facts 
($::clientcert, $::fqdn and $::hostname) is not reliable in that the data can 
be trivially spoofed.  There should therefore be top level scoped data that can 
be used in Hiera or conditionals that is guaranteed to match the CN of the cert 
presented which can then be safely be used to return apposite configurations to 
the node.  That data should be generated by the puppet master process itself, 
not importing facts.
