This PR adds support for installing and running Splunk on Solaris 11

  • Expects the package to be available in a system IPS repository
    (configured outside of this module)
  • Installs an SMF manifest to run Splunk as the desired user
    (extending previous PR Allow splunk to run as a non-root user on RedHat #72)
  • Re-establishes the orphaned splunk-launch.conf template, since a
    copy of this file is required before splunk will run

The SMF manifest was borrowed from https://answers.splunk.com/answering/6153/view.html and modified slightly to set the SPLUNK_HOME envvar correctly and interpolate the template variables.

This has been tested on Solaris 11.2 only.
