Research direction

Start by reviewing how Hiera data is consumed for vhost definitions and how the module currently creates virtual hosts. Compare the required custom-vhost data with the wrapper module workaround described in the issue. Done means a custom vhost can be defined directly through Hiera without a wrapper module, with coverage for the supported configuration.
