      Description

      From original Redmine ticket 18342 comment from Josh Cooper, which this duplicates:

      I disabled the file settings code that manages owner and group on Windows, because at the time we didn’t yet have the ability to chown/chgrp. This has since been implemented, and so the ability to manage owner and group should be added.

      In lib/puppet/settings/file_setting.rb

      1. REMIND fails on Windows because chown/chgrp functionality not supported yet
        if Puppet.features.root? and !Puppet.features.microsoft_windows?
        We also need to unconfine the acceptance test acceptance/tests/config/apply_file_metadata_specified_in_config.rb so that it runs on windows. See #17371
