Release Notes:
Deprecation
Release Notes Summary:
A deprecation warning will now be issued to users when a checksum value is being used explicitly in the content property of a file resource.

If a user specifies a file checksum in the content attribute, like:

file {'/tmp/foo': content => "{md5}saotedc8dethauuhhtneoatndh" }

... we should log a deprecation warning. We should start doing this sometime during Puppet 5 to prepare for removal in Puppet 6.
