Change $deviceconfdir section to agent

Issue Type:	Bug
Assignee:	Gabriel Nagy
Created:	2019/08/02 3:00 AM
Priority:	Normal
Reporter:	Gabriel Nagy

Setting $deviceconfdir in the main section makes puppetserver want to create it, which it shouldn't.

Starting puppetserver with an affected agent fails because of this:

Changing the section of $deviceconfdir to agent fixes the issue.
