(MODULES-7789) Port over the PUP-9217 changes
PUP-9217 introduced the :raise_prefetch_errors option to the ParsedFile provider base class that, when set, will fail any resources associated with a failed prefetch target. Thus, when a file read error does occur, Puppet will fail all of the resources associated with the failed crontab (target). This means that the failed crontab will not be overwritten, thus fixing the issue described in the ticket. For more details, please refer to https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/commit/5b0fa987e5b7b27839e424ff16d59c7bf081c73a

+ # This manifest reproduces the issue in PUP-9217. Here's how:
+ # 1. When Puppet attempts to realize Cron['first_entry'], it will prefetch
+ # all of the present cron entries on the system. To do this, it will execute
+ # the crontab command. Since we prepend stub_crontab_bindir to PATH prior to
+ # executing Puppet, executing the crontab command will really execute
+ # stub_crontab_exe, which returns an exit code of 1. This triggers our
+ # read error.
+ #
+ # 2. Puppet will attempt to write Cron['first_entry'] onto disk. However, it will
+ # fail to do so because it will still execute stub_crontab_exe to perform the
+ # write. Thus, Cron['first_entry'] will fail its evaluation.
+ #
+ # 3. Next, Puppet will modify stub_crontab_exe to now execute the actual crontab
+ # command so that any subsequent calls to crontab will succeed. Note that under
+ # the hood, Puppet will still be executing stub_crontab_exe.
+ #
+ # 4. Finally, Puppet will attempt to realize Cron['second_entry']. It will skip
+ # the prefetch step, instead proceeding to directly write Cron['second_entry']
+ # to disk. But note that since the prefetch failed in (1), Puppet will proceed
+ # to overwrite our user's crontab file so that it will contain Cron['first_entry']
+ # and Cron['second_entry'] (Cron['first_entry'] is there because Puppet maintains
+ # each crontab file's entries in memory so that when it writes one entry to disk,
+ # it will write all of them).
