Cumulus Linux RSpec additions
preserve agressive regex to match other setcodes, also explicit variable
(maint) Refactor hpux_spec.rb to reduce test redundancy

Prior to this commit tests for IP facts had significant duplication making it difficult to maintain in the event fixtures change or version support is added or dropped.

This commit consolidates the common features of the tests, making it easier to identify where maintenance should occur as fixtures change.
fix use C as default locale.

Currently facter sets only LANG environment variable, this does not
work on systems that have LC_ALL configured, because LC_ALL
have higher priority than LANG variable.

So the correct procedure is to configure LC_ALL=C instead of LANG=C.
change resolution_spec to test LC_ALL locale environment  var.
should configure LANG and LC_ALL.

(#21954) Add support for Mageia OS to osfamily.rb

The addition of Mageia OS in
https://github.com/puppetlabs/facter/commit/e2f040a5bc4ed7539ecc54a5c3d26f93a9ed6a18
(Ticket #9929) was incomplete.
Mageia is derived from Mandrake and Mandriva, and so is in the same family.
This patch adds support to return osfamily='Mandrake' on a Mageia OS system,
rather than the generic 'Linux' kernel value, as well as adjusting the tests
expecting the kernel fact for the Mageia operating system.

Maint: Don't load facts twice during specs

Previously, the spec_helper was prepending facter's lib directory to the
$LOAD_PATH, which had the side-effect of causing the zfs and zpool commands
to be executed 5 times, not 3 (as specified in the comments).

Originally, this was noticed because we were having to add `.at_least_once`
to expectations even though the method should have only been called once.

This commit changes the spec_helper to no longer prepend facter's top-level
lib directory to the LOAD_PATH. In doing so, it causes the virtual fact
resolutions to be evaluated in a different order than the virtual tests
expected. In particular, the tests we're trying to verify the more-specific
resolution, but were actually running with the more generic one.

This commit adds a higher weight to the more specific virtual facts,
since that's the expected behavior, and it ensures the tests reliably
test the resolution they are trying to set their expectations on.

(#16668) Use WMI to collect IPv4 address

Previously, we were calling `IPSocket.getaddress(Socket.gethostname)` to
resolve the `ipaddress` fact on Windows, but using WMI-based methods
to resolve other IP related facts, e.g. interfaces. This led to inconsistent
information -- ipaddress from one interface, netmask from another.

This commit introduces a `get_preferred_network_adapters` method that
returns an ordered list of WIN32OLE objects that wrap
Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration objects. The list is ordered by the
IPConnectionMetric. If two interfaces have the same metric, e.g. host with
multiple NICs, then the order is based on the adapter bindings[1].

It is possible for a network adapter configuration to contain IPv4 and/or
IPv6 addresses, but only the former will be considered valid for the
ipaddress fact.

(#16668) Use WMI to collect netmask fact

Previously, Windows hosts didn't report the netmask fact.
(#16668) Use WMI to collect macaddress fact

Previously, facter would report on the first macaddress associated
with any interface that had IP enabled. This could easily be an
interface with a high cost metric, or an IPv6 only interface.

This commit refactors the macaddress fact to use the same ordered list
of network adapters as is done for ipaddress, to ensure we return a
consistent set of facts.
(#16668) Use WMI to collect IPv6 address

Previously, we were using netsh.exe to collect the ipaddress6 fact, but it
relied on en_US output that wasn't internationalizable.

This commit uses WMI, like the ipaddress fact, and handles issues like
multiple NICs, both IPv4 and IPv6 IP addresses on a single NIC,
per-interface metrics, and the binding order of interfaces.
(#21518) Use WMI to collect per-interface facts

Previously, we used netsh.exe to collect the interfaces fact, and the
derived per-interface facts on Windows. However, netsh.exe is not
available on plain 2003 servers, and the facts relied on netsh.exe
outputting en_US text.

This commit refactors the method to use WMI instead, which does not
have these issues.
