We have our own backup script with some additional features, of which
quite a few are specific for our platform. I could add some of them
here as well, but this would end up in a completely new script.
That's why I try it with this minimally invasive variant :)

…ency

The change introduced in mariadb 10.2.16 (and 10.3.8) where:

> the `SET PASSWORD` command stores user passwords
in the `mysql_native_password` plugin `authentication_string` instead of
in the `password` column

was addressed in #1135

This behaviour was short-lived.  In 10.2.19 and 10.3.11 the old
behaviour was restored.

> The fix in the commit dd6e74c62a2 made sure that the password field is always set, because that was the original issue that broke third-party tools.

Squashed Commit Messages:

* (WIP) - POC Litmus conversion

* Updating test to avoid failures when running against the same machine

* Readding idempotent testing

* Updating travis

* rubocop fixes

* Remove puppet 5 dependency clash

This is not a good idea, however it is one of the last options we have
to progress. There are gem dependencies when running litmus, pdk and
bolt on puppet 5. Doing this means litmus will not be installed on
puppet 5. We have pinned to a ruby version as puppet and ruby are
closely coupled and this is a solution that works and the ruby version
is available to us.
