Title: CHEF-4849: Implement `variables` method in Package resource

Now that Chef properly supports a package `response_file` using
`Chef::Resource::Template`, the Package resource should implement the
`variables` method so that variables do not have to exist as node attributes
(eg - for seeding DB passwords for configuration files generated by packages).
