+Takes a resource type, title, and a list of attributes that describe a
+resource.
+
+    user { 'dan':
+      ensure => present,
+    }
+
+This example only creates the resource if it does not already exist:
+
+    ensure_resource('user, 'dan', {'ensure' => 'present' })
+
+If the resource already exists but does not match the specified parameters,
+this function will attempt to recreate the resource leading to a duplicate
+resource definition error.
