Can one of the admins verify this patch?

I realise since this patch was originally written PuppetDB itself can be configured to block facts however we have been running this way for years and dropping the facts earlier makes sense.

For anyone that ends up finding this PR as well. PuppetDB itself cannot be configured to block structured facts due to #3975.

This patch works as well for structured facts, not like puppetlabs#3998
