The `trusted_external_command` is only run once when external data is requested, rather than every time a request is made.

Description
Puppet Version: 6.12.0
Puppet Server Version: 6.8.0
OS Name/Version: RHEL
When using the trusted_external_command setting, the command is executed for every file_content request, not just catalogs. This info can't possibly be required for a file_content request and this will cause a huge performance impact to the puppetserver as this could easily be executed 1000 times for a given node if it's new and needs to do a pluginsync, or if there are a lot of files managed.
The error you see below is just from my trusted_external_command and is irrelevant other than show that it does execute it each time
