Updated version of #2125 to fix CHEF-2911
This pull request allows a version requirement such as ` = 1.0.1` to be specified in either the resource name or the version attribute of a yum_package resource, and modifies the yum package provider to update existing packages based on that requirement. Also adds specs to test this new functionality.
