  @summary
    Takes a resource type, title, and a list of attributes that describe a
    resource.

  user { 'dan':
    ensure => present,
  }

  @return
    created or recreated the passed resource with the passed type and attributes

  @example Example usage

    Creates the resource if it does not already exist:

      ensure_resource('user', 'dan', {'ensure' => 'present' })

    If the resource already exists but does not match the specified parameters,
    this function will attempt to recreate the resource leading to a duplicate
    resource definition error.

    An array of resources can also be passed in and each will be created with
    the type and parameters specified if it doesn't already exist.

      ensure_resource('user', ['dan','alex'], {'ensure' => 'present'})
