This logic is "easy" to modify for that, but the other iteration (also
a version list) is not, as it's not using a comparison, but extracting
the value itself.

I have asked upstream in https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/pull/5009

Title:
  Set systemd as default service provider

Status in puppet package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  AFAIK, Ubuntu has systemd as default init system since 15.04 release. Although, puppet thinks it's still upstart.
  This behavior is already fixed in upstream puppet code. Please, add this patch to Xenial puppet package.
