Add Debian 10 support

[root-expert]

Pull Request (PR) description

Debian 10 doesn't provide mongodb packages, so we need to set manage_package_repo to true by default and install latest version supported by the module (4.4.8)

This Pull Request (PR) fixes the following issues

[smortex]

I am not a user of MongoDB so might be off, but defaulting to different sources depending just on the OS version does not feel good to me.

What do you think if we adjust this PR so that:

• it always default to install the OS vendored package by default (and fail if such package does not exist);
• the test suite checks that the catalog does not compile with the default settings (to have a clue if for some reason a package is made available in the future. That should never happen with Debian but the code might be copied for other OS);
• the test suite checks that with explicit values for mange_repo / version the thing works as expected (by reusing example groups?).

[smortex]

That mean that the same configuration on some nodes install the version packaged for the system by the OS vendor, and on other brings in a custom repository and version not supported by the OS vendor.

I would be more confident if we required the end user to set manage_package_repo and version explicitly and defaulting to what the OS recommend.

[root-expert]

My only concern is that for some OSes the module will work out of the box and for Debian 10/11 you'll need mongodb::globals class as well

[smortex]

But since Debian does not support MongoDB out of the box, that seems fair. Maybe I am the only one worried by this :-) Let's wait for other reviewers opinion about this.

looks good to me! are you interested in adding debian 11 in another PR?

Hello,

I have also a question: I assumed, that - if I set mongodb::globals::manage_package: false to false, no package is managed, but it tries to install in Debian 4.4.8 because of 'buster' => '4.4.8', .. What .. If I just want to manage config etc. pp. and service .. but don't touch the packages itself ?

Hello @linuxmail!

if you want to achieve that, I assume you have to set mongodb::globals::manage_package_repo to either false or undef along with mongodb::globals::manage_package: false.
