With a simple pillar like this::

    $ sudo salt-call --config-dir /srv/etc/bootstrap --pillar-root /srv/pillar pillar.get salt:pillar_roots
    local:
        ----------
        base:
            - /srv/pillar

This was generated in /etc/salt/master.d/f_defaults.conf::

    # highstate format, and is generally just key/value pairs.
    pillar_roots:base:- /srv/pillar
    #

Resulting in parse errors by salt::

    $ sudo salt '*' state.highstate

This commit fixes how `pillar_roots` are generated and after this fix the
generated configuration does not contain any unnecessary new lines:

```yaml
pillar_roots:
  base:
     /srv/salt/dir1
  dev:
     /srv/salt/dir2
     /srv/salt/dir3
  locale:
     /srv/salt/dir4
```

Before this commit the pillar_roots in `f_defaults.conf` for master would be
generated with a lot of empty lines in between directories, like this:

```yaml
pillar_roots:

  base:

     /srv/salt/dir1

  dev:

     /srv/salt/dir2

     /srv/salt/dir3

  local:

     /srv/salt/dir4

```

The minion configuration is not affected and renders fine.

The user will already have it's /etc/salt/minion file, so it doesn't need all this info, and it makes easier to know what has been generated and what not

Needed because salt-cloud will attempt to load them even if they are
filled with invalid default values, creating error spam.

Added config setting for:

* pillar_source_merging_strategy

This obsoletes the salt:cloud:folders and salt:cloud:providers pillar
entries. Provider keys have been moved to /etc/salt/pki/cloud.

These aren't intended to function; they're here to allow the use of
file.recurse on the provider folder, without requiring the user
to provide pillar data for templates they're not using.

Salt writes it's schedule file to /etc/salt/{minion,master}.d/_schedule.conf

We don't want to stomp all over Salt's files, but we do want a pristine
starting point to lay down our managed config. So we use clean: True on the
file.recurse call, but we tell it to ignore files that start with an _

We have to rename the current config file (_defaults.conf) because it will be
ignored by the rule that ignores Salt's _* config files.

This also means we need to clean up old config files (_defaults.conf) and
restart the service if we cleaned it up.

This will fix #39

And it will be backwards compatible with the current pillar configuration.

see pillar.example for configuration

This is necessary for the correct settings on the minions when saltifying new hosts

If those options are set in pillar data, the jinja template
salt/files/master.d/_defaults.conf would fail to compile trying to
evaluate non-existing variables.

Replace those variables with the corresponding dictionnary entries.

This is only needed for salt versions older than 2014.7 that do not
define the global "salt" variable in such context.

Most include do not expect salt to be something else than the usual salt
variable giving access to all the salt modules. Instead we use cfg_salt.
And for consistency we rename the master/minion variables to
cfg_master/cfg_minion too.

This commit also provides a more concrete example of a 'host' to
be saltified.  Users can do

    salt-cloud -p make_salty someinstance

or

    salt-cloud -m /etc/salt/cloud.maps.d/foo.conf

Either which way the online docs should really be updated with more
concrete examples.

In Python 3, dict.items() is already an iterator while dict.iteritems() no
longer exits. In Python 2, dict.items() is not an iterator but it works
and the small performance hit doesn't really matter for the salt config
pillar data which is really small.

Otherwise you get an “ValueError: too many values to unpack” exception
when you make use of those entries in your pillar data.

This state downloads formulas from git repositories and ensures
that they are recorded in the file_roots setting.

Fixed explanations, and improved logic code to client_acl

better newlines with iterations.

This will make the _defaults.conf file for master and minion
better by removing some empty lines in some code blocks

Updated gitfs jinja, to mirror master file

Gitfs for the minion is possible with salt 2014.7
Updated config _defaults.conf and pillar with example
Tested it on Archlinux with salt-call --local state.highstate

I don't understand why unnecessary ``-`` were added after and before ``{%-`` and ``-%}``

https://github.com/saltstack-formulas/salt-formula/issues/64

Fixes issue where a gitfs remote that has no child options would cause an
error. Also fix up bad yaml in pillar example.

Commit 2b51a6f0c3 introduced options for gitfs_remotes in a pillar by using a jinja test to see if a parameter is a mapping (dict etc.). This feature however is only available in jinja 2.6 or newer (see http://jinja.pocoo.org/docs/dev/templates/#mapping).
Although this version of Jinja is available on Ubuntu, other OS / package managers do provide older versions (2.2.1 in RedHat 6).

This change makes use of the "iterable" test which should do the exact same thing.

Reference about this config value: http://docs.saltstack.com/en/latest/ref/configuration/master.html#yaml-utf8
Reference why this might be useful: https://github.com/saltstack/salt/issues/3436#issuecomment-61225863

This allows users to easily add configuration settings that the formula
doesn't yet provide, without having to modify the existing templates.

Fixes #48

See #37 "Fixed file_roots config generation with several environment"

Fixed an apparent typo in the autoreject_file setting (which was listed as autorejecte_file)
