Title: Feature/1.6.x/plist support

CFPropertyList (http://github.com/ckruse/cfpropertylist by Christian Kruse) is a Ruby library that can read/write XML AND binary plist files without having to use the 'plutil' command on OS X. The end-result is exponentially faster Puppet runs that have to query/stop/start OS X services.
