Description

(PUP-3719) Group resource non-authoritative by default

The auth_membership group parameter controls whether puppet ensures the
group contains *exactly* the members specified, and no more, or contains *at
least* the members specified. By default, the group parameter defaults to the
former, which is opposite to the auth_membership user parameter. This makes
the group parameter difficult to use in practice, because you need to know what
the complete set of group members should be. For example, on Windows the local
Administrators group may contain a combination of local and domain
user/group accounts, and that may vary across different types of machines.

This switches the default to false to correct the confusion and needing to know
every member of a group.
