Puppet no longer prints an error if fileserver.conf contains "allow *" rules. It will continue to print an error for all other rules, since puppet's legacy authorization is no longer supported and is completely superseded by puppetserver's authorization.

The error Entry 'allow *' is unsupported and will be ignored shows up when upgrading to PE 2021 with Puppet 7. Since the file is managed to remove this entry once the puppet run that upgrades the primary completes (https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet-enterprise-modules/commit/e7659a96562dced9fdd09b850c5a7947bed7043c), it would be great to be able to either suppress this message, or remove it if it is unnecessary.
