Support for symlink data dirs #7

Description

@danir-de

Hey there.
I've been managing a bigger nextcloud instance and stumbled upon a problem while migrating data from the native data folder to a symlink of another folder.

In our exact scenario, we want to use another path (for example /mnt/nextcloud) and make a symlink from /opt/nextcloud-data to /mnt/nextcloud.
The problem in this being, that the puppet module doesn't allow me to define another folder or symlink, since that directory is already a defined object:

file { $nextcloud::datadir:
ensure => directory,
owner => $nextcloud::system_user,
group => $nextcloud::system_group,
before => Nextcloud::Install::Distribution['initial install'],
}

It would be great to have a toggle, that allows me to "skip" the automatic creation of the data folder in order to define my own puppet file element with a toggle like manage_datadir => false.
