Title: Allow version and held states of a package to specified as separate properties

Before this patch version and held states needed to be specified as part
of the ensure property on a package:

package { foo:
ensure => 'held',
}

package { foo:
ensure => '1.0',
}

After this patch those states can be specified as separate properties:

package { foo:
ensure => installed,
version => '1.0',
held => true,
}
