At first my heart rate started to go up and I was getting excited, but it looks like this removes the old Puppet 3 shims for hiera() that raise errors telling folks to make a Puppet 4 function call.

So, these have been failing for years now and are fine to remove 👍

Only remaining question I can think of is whether the doc strings in these shims are providing content to openvox-docs.
