Bug #1171
support sha512 password hashing in RHEL6 / CentOS6

Description
Currently, foreman doesn't support the "default" hashing algo used by RHEL6.
If you use the following line in your kickstart:
authconfig --useshadow --passalgo=sha512
The resulting encrypted path will not be using sha512, which means you'll get authentication errors when the host is provisioned.
My workaround right now, is to NOT let foreman encrypt the passwords.
I have foreman set the initial password to "password" (in plaintext)
rootpw password
And then on the first puppet run, I have a module that changes the password to what it should be, using SHA512.

I'm not sure I could reproduce this (e.g. it works with the default templates just fine), what am I missing?
