Add '--names-only' option to `puppet facts diff`

This came up as an improvement suggestion from Vadym Chepkov to aid in creating the exclude regular expression argument. This way users could run `puppet facts diff --names-only` and use that output to more easily identify and create the wanted regular expression and run `puppet facts diff --exclude <custom_regular_expression>`.

Implementation in both Puppet (diff action) and puppetlabs-puppet_agent module (diff task) is needed.
