stdlib::to_yaml don't work with Deferred

[mdc-webdb]

Describe the Bug

The to_yaml function don't takes into account the deferred function

Expected Behavior

That for example password's can be read via the deferred function, which will be used in yaml structures.

Sample code:

$foo= {
      _meta => {
        type           => 'internalusers',
        config_version => 2,
      },
      sample => {
        hash          => Deferred(<function>, [<parameters>]),
        reserved      => true,
        backend_roles => [
          'admin'
        ],
        description   => 'bar'
      }
}
file { 'foo.yaml':
  ensure  => file,
  content => stdlib::to_yaml($foo),
}

It will result in:

hash: !ruby/object
hash: 908132173599942729
name:
arguments:
- "<parameter 1>"
- "<parameter 2>"

instant of an correct yaml file.

Does the following work?

content => Deferred('stdlib::to_yaml', [$foo])

Yes this will works thanks.
I think that should be included in the documentary.

Glad it worked. I hope one day, we can make it magically 'just work'.
Some progress towards that in #1463
