Chef::Util::DSC::LocalConfigurationManager::Parser.parse

Parses the output from LCM and returns a list of Chef::Util::DSC::ResourceInfo objects
that describe how the resources affected the system

Example:
  parse <<-EOF
  What if: [Machine]: LCM: [Start Set      ]
  What if: [Machine]: LCM: [Start Resource ] [[File]FileToNotBeThere]
  What if: [Machine]: LCM: [Start Set      ] [[File]FileToNotBeThere]
  What if:                                   [C:\ShouldNotExist.txt] removed
  What if: [Machine]: LCM: [End Set        ] [[File]FileToNotBeThere] in 0.1 seconds
  What if: [Machine]: LCM: [End Resource   ] [[File]FileToNotBeThere]
  What if: [Machine]: LCM: [End Set        ]
  EOF

  would return

  [
    Chef::Util::DSC::ResourceInfo.new(
      '[[File]FileToNotBeThere]',
      true,
      [
        '[[File]FileToNotBeThere]',
        '[C:\Shouldnotexist.txt]',
        '[[File]FileToNotBeThere] in 0.1 seconds'
      ]
    )
  ]
