This commit updates the Puppetfile example module versions to list the
latest releases for the example modules as of 2019-07-10, and also
updates several files for style.
Standardizing on double-quotes in YAML due to:
1. Functional irrelevance between single vs. double quotes in our YAML
2. Prevalent use of double-quotes in Puppet documentation
3. Similar look-and-feel to other data serialization formats like JSON
This commit attempts to cleanup and modernize the comments in site.pp a
bit.
For one thing, I've updated the docs links to point to working URL's.
For another, I tried to reorganize, clarify, and deduplicate the comments.
The symlink served for a good discussion point around change impact, but
in the end having it makes for a more confusing experience overall both
to new users cloning the control-repo to get started and also to anyone
accustomed to "site". A new user won't miss "site". A symlink will muddy
the waters over the change for long-time users. Better for clarity to be
all-in and not include a symlink.
Prior to this commit, we placed modules local to a users installation
in the `site` directory. This was just a convention and the name
`site` doesn't clearly convey what it is for.
After this commit, we place modules local to a users installation in
the `site-modules` directory. This makes it more clear to users
that this is a directory that modules go i. When users start
with bolt they won't even know what a control-repo is and
renaming site to site-modules gives them a better idea of why
they should put their modules with tasks in them. Also see:

This commit moves the "where did all the previous code go" section to
the bottom as it's been a while since that change was made. Nowadays,
people new to Control Repositories will find this and won't understand
the reference as they never knew about previous versions.
Now the README starts right away with information on what this project
is and how to use it.
Also cleaned up some of the Markdown syntax to make it easier to read.
This is mainly a style and readability change.
Prior to this, on masters whose hostname is actually their FQDN, the
config_version script would show the entire FQDN. On nodes with really
longs FQDN's, it was not very nice to look at.
This takes the hostname of the master, splits it on dots (.) and takes
the first segment.
Now this: compile-master-02.int.lab.dmz.company-name.net-production-48fd18ab
Is this: compile-master-02-production-48fd18ab
Prior to this, the config_version.rb script (used for r10k) attempted to
use the system ruby to parse the script. This caused problems on Puppet
masters that don't have `ruby` in PATH.
This fixes that by hardcoding the puppet-agent's ruby in the shebang.
Prior to this, modules that were deployed with r10k into the ./modules
directory weren't being ignored by git.
When doing local development or testing, it's nice to be able to run
'r10k puppetfile install' to pull down modules from the Puppetfile.
After this commit, those modules won't be tracked by git.
