Feature #10465: Provide a new "obsessive" mode which queries resources again 
after sync

----------------------------------------
Quite frequently there will be cases where the providers think they have done 
the right thing and report success even though the end result is not 
successful. This results in continual runs where there are successful changes 
but the overall outcome is the same - the system state is not what you want it 
to be.

I would like for there to be a mode you can optionally enable that triggers a 
second query from the provider after the sync has occurred to see if the 
desired changes were actually done. If not, trigger a real error (which in fact 
is just reflecting more accurately the state of the machine than if we were to 
not perform this checking).

In the case where Puppet is being used for larger orchestrated upgrades this is 
an essential component to figuring out if the desired changes were completed 
successfully and thus attention can be turned to the next machine(s) in the 
workflow.
