Feature #10238: Add support for identifying block devices to Facter
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/10238#change-94864

* Author: Jason Gill

* Priority: Low
* Assignee: Adrien Thebo
* Category: library
* Target version: 1.7.0
* Keywords: 
* Branch: 
* Affected Facter version: 
----------------------------------------
I've written a simple fact for Facter which parses /sys/block/ on Linux to 
identify block devices attached to the machine. This fact is serving as a good 
base for a hardware RAID querying fact that I'm working on, so I hoped to get 
it added to a future release of Facter. Additionally, users of the Puppet 
Inventory Service could find this quite handy for identifying the disks 
attached to machines (we have hundreds of servers with a large number of 
different disks and we're trying to identify machines that have older or slower 
drives still in use).

You can find my code [over at 
github](https://github.com/jasongill/facter-factpack/blob/master/blockdevice.rb)

Example output from a machine with 2x Dell PowerEdge RAID Controller arrays and 
a CD drive:
    blockdevice_sda => DELL PERC H700
    blockdevice_sdb => DELL PERC H700
    blockdevice_sr0 => TEAC DVD-ROM DV-28SW
    blockdevices => sda,sdb,sr0    

Example output from a machine with two Western Digital SATA disks:
    blockdevice_sda => ATA WDC WD5000AAKS-0
    blockdevice_sdb => ATA WDC WD5000AAKS-0
    blockdevices => sda,sdb
    
I'm open to feedback (or please close this if I'm out of line suggesting a new 
fact that I wrote) - this is my first real Ruby work!
