Description

If in a MetaTechnique, we use permissions() and permissions_recurse(), during rudderification, the metadata.xml generated will be "malformed" since it will contain:

[...]
<SECTION component="true" multivalued="true" name="Permissions recurse">
  <REPORTKEYS>
     [...]
  </REPORTKEYS>
</SECTION>
[...]

<SECTION component="true" multivalued="true" name="Permissions recurse">
  <REPORTKEYS>
     [...]
  </REPORTKEYS>
</SECTION>
[...]

I suppose this is due to the fact that permissions() and permissions_recurse() are two different bundles using the same method permissions_type_recurse().

Had a look into this. It turns out it's a simple one: both permissions and permissions_recurse have the same "@name" attribute defined. So they appear as duplicates in the generated metadata.xml.

This PR fixes the problem and adds a test to ensure this is detected, so it won't happen again: https://github.com/Normation/ncf/pull/40
