Currently, if the inspec.yml for a profile is invalid (such as including
an improperly-defined multi-line string), InSpec will throw an exception
from the YAML parser that does not given a clear indication that the
issue was encountered while parsing the inspec.yml file.
This change introduces a better exception message to clue the user into
where the problem actually lies.

Previous, require_controls was including all controls from the named
profile, despite the documented behavior being that it only includes
controls explicitly pulled in by the user. The cause was two-fold:
1) A previous refactor meant that we weren't removing the rule from the
correct context, and
2) We weren't descending down the dependency tree when filtering rules.
This commit fixes the require_controls DSL method and adds a test to
help prevent future regressions.

All resources from deps are added into the control_eval_context used by
the current profile. However, if there is a name conflict, the last
loaded resource wins. The new `require_resource` dsl method allows the
user to do the following:
require_resource(profile: 'profile_name',
resource: 'other',
as: 'renamed')
describe renamed do
...
end

The goal of these changes is to ensure that the libraries from
dependencies are loaded even if their controls are never included. To
facilitate this, we break up the loading into seperate steps, and move
the loading code into the Profile which has acceess to the dependency
information.

Previously, all resources were loaded into a single resource registry.
Now, each profile context has a resource registry, when a profile's
library is loaded into the profile context, we update the
profile-context-specific resource registry. This local registry is
then used to populate the execution context that the rules are
evaluated in.

A few minor issues were causing 3 functional test failures on OS X.
These were not program errors but where rather the result of the
profiles under test assuming a linux environment.
Since many of the developers who will work on this project in the future
will be running OS X, let's ensure they can run the functional tests
easily.

The goal of this change is to provide an isolated view of the available
profiles when the user calls the include_controls or require_controls
APIs. Namely,
- A profile should only be able to reference profiles that are part of
its transitive dependency tree. That is, if the dependency tree for a
profile looks like the following:
A
|- B --> C
|
|- D --> E
Then profile B should only be able to see profile C and fail if it
tries to reference A, D, or E.
- The same profile should be include-able at different versions from
different parts of the tree without conflict. That is, if the
dependency tree for a profile looks like the following:
A
|- B --> C@1.0
|
|- D --> C@2.0
Then profile B should see the 1.0 version of C and profile D should
see the 2.0 profile C with respect to the included controls.
To achieve these goals we:
- Ensure that we construct ProfileContext objects with respect to the
correct dependencies in Inspec::DSL.
- Provide a method of accessing all transitively defined rules on a
ProfileContext without pushing all of the rules onto the same global
namespace.
This does not yet handle attributes or libraries.
This extends the dependency feature to include support for url-based
dependencies. It takes some deviations from the current support for
URLs that we'll likely want to make more consistent.
By default, we store downloaded archives in the cache rather than the
unpacked archive. However, to facilitate debugging, we will prefer the
unpacked archive if we find it in the cache.

Instead of just removing all tests because of OS support, supports now acts by adding all tests to the execution context, but doesnt actually execute them. Instead tests are set to skip before they get to the actual execution context
Before introducing InSpec profiles in https://github.com/chef/inspec/pull/252 we had `metadata.rb` keep all information. This included an undisclosed field called `supports`. However, this field was never actually used in practice. So for legacy profiles, this means that `supports` was ignored. In order to keep old profiles running in exactly the way they were before, ignore this field when reading from metadata.rb
For reading the profiles metadata, we're using the train mock backend
through Inspec::Runner. The new `supports` feature never agrees with the
mock backend.
Now, it we figure out if this is a mock class and then just say that it
supports whatever we're asking for.
Tl;dr: there's probably a more beautiful solution to this.
Added a test case, but it fails -- while the command line interface
works fine.
