Previously, if a template contained a BOM, then it was preserved by the `template` function, and would end up in the resulting file or PowerShell command. Now we pass the `bom` option when reading the file, which strips the BOM as it is read.

Needs Assessment
Description
See additional details in MODULES-1996 / PUP-6447.
The basic gist is that internal calls to read, like the one made by template loading with Puppet::FileSystem.read_preserve_line_endings, do not specify the "allow bom" flag when reading UTF-8 files.
This should be a straightforward addition that allows templates (for instance PowerShell templates that were once PS1 files created by PowerShell ISE that have a leading BOM) to properly remove the leading BOM.
