add apt::preferences::snippet to enable specifying the puppetmaster version.

The preferences snippet requires that we set the package parameter to 'puppet*' to pull in the correct dependencies.

We set the priority to 2000 because according to apt_preferences(5):

   P > 1000 causes a version to be installed even if this constitutes a downgrade of the package

which is the desired behavior.

This should resolve issue #2928
