Puppet lint module reference check

This checks whether used modules are properly referenced in the comments by these rules:

• All internal prefixed with profile:: or role:: based on the Puppet role/profile concept) modules have to be referenced using a @see tag
• All component modules have to be referenced like the following
  • All used classes and defined types need to be gathered in a comma-separated list of regexps in a @ref tag
  • The full module name (vendor-module) has to be referenced in a @note tag
  • At minimum one @see tag with a reference to the puppet forge page of the component module
  • Example: # @ref apache.*,a2mod # @note puppetlabs-apache # @see https://forge.puppet.com/modules/puppetlabs/apache
• Modules referenced by features (using our own role::include_features function) have to be referenced with @see
• The module references have to be sorted alphabetically and grouped by this:
  • component module
  • internal modules
  • modules referenced by features

Note: This check can only detect component module usage with the class and include keywords, but supports reference comments to undetectable components modules as well.
