(MODULES-3590) Fix match_for_absence parameter
Prior to this commit, due to a bug in the exists? method in the
file_line provider, match_for_absence didn't work as described (or
at all really). Update the exists? logic so that match_for_absence
works as described.
Additionally add a unit test to prevent regressions and update the
documentation for the parameter to reflect the fact that it is
ignored when `ensure => present`.

Default: Undefined. * `match`: Specifies a regular expression to run against existing lines in the file; if a match is found, it is replaced rather than adding a new line. A regex comparison is performed against the line value, and if it does not match, an exception is raised. Valid options: String containing a regex. Default: Undefined. -* `match_for_absence`: An optional value to determine if match should be applied when `ensure => absent`.
