Break out the rspec helpers into a chef-rspec gem #103

Description

@lamont-granquist

Should probably live with chef/chef or follow the same release coordination as chef/chef and ohai will going forwards.

Having the rspec helpers in cheffish is weird as hell. Even the README.md makes it clear that its weird "here's a pile of resources... oh BTW here some 'bonus' rspec helpers...." WTF?

Now cheffish is pulled into chef/chef because of the dep that chef/chef's integration tests have on cheffish's rspec helpers which is another tangled nightmare of tightly-coupled dependencies.

And most likely since there's apparently not a lot of unit testing around the rspec helpers (at least I was able to break the tests that use them in chef/chef without breaking any spec tests in this repo) that suggests that the compatibility between the rspec helpers and old versions of chef is most likely a lie -- certain its untested and at any point may become a lie.
