(#5394) Document each Facter fact.
Document all the builtin Facter facts in puppetdoc/rdoc format. This is laying the ground work for using a tool like puppet doc, or puppet describe but for facter, so you can see what a fact is for and how it resolves this. This is the "leg work" of documenting the actual facts, and the syntax of them may change in future.
