Previously the service_ensure parameter was defined in the type however it was
never implemented in the provider. As such this param had no effect. This
commit removes the parameter because:

  • This parameter is confusing as it is only applicable at installation time,
    not constantly enforced
  • Each service can have a different startup type. This is already possible
    using the install_switches e.g. /BROWSERSVCSTARTUPTYPE=Disabled
  • Ongoing Windows service state should really be managed by a puppet manifest
    not by an installation switch
