Now that there is a puppetstrings feature flag, we can change the loading
behaviour of the Custom Types to use the newer loader and Puppet Strings
metadata evaluation. This commit;
* Adds Custom Types ('type') ability to the retrieve_via_puppet_strings method
* Custom Types loading isn't fully implemented like Puppet Functions are, in
particular there's no use of the Smart Paths, and the loader still uses the
old autoload methods. To work around this a new loader is created, which is
based on the the NullLoader. It's purpose is to only support the needed
discover_path method, however as it's a NullLoader, it won't actually load
anything if it's called by Puppet.
This loader calls the old autoloader using the same logic we used previously
but surfaced via the loader.
* Just like the previous loading mechanism, the whit and component types are
ignored.
* The Puppet Strings helper is updated to support reading the type data from
Puppet Strings. Note that class documentation is now available whereas
in the current iteration of the sidecar it is not.
* The integration tests were updated to test for the new information and that
the data can be cached correctly.
