ensure=>latest

----------------------------------------
We have a few packages which have a pin >1000 (forcing downgrades if the 
highest available package has a lower version than the installed one). Of 
those, some are managed by puppet, but ensure=>latest fails for them if the 
package needs to be downgraded.

The apt provider should include --force-yes also when ensure is set to 'latest' 
in our opinion.
