By default, rspec-puppet-facts uses the facterdb facts that match the version of the facter gem installed. Starting with facter 3, facter was no longer shipped as a gem (it was rewritten in C++).
This commit sets `facterversion` to `3.0.0` so that tests run with more modern (structured) facts stubbed.
Puppet has been shipping facter 3 since puppet 4.2.0. This module supports puppet >= 4.6.1, (and puppet 4 is EOL at the end of 2018).
puppet-extlib's `ip_to_cron` function (used in puppet::agent::service::cron) has recently moved to using the `networking` structured fact not available in facter 2.
