data_bag_item() returns a plain Hash?

Shouldn’t it return a Chef::DataBagItem? I just spent way too long tracking
down a recipe bug where an attribute wasn’t found because I was trying to
index into the Hash version with a Symbol, when all the Hash keys are
actually Strings. Either one works for DataBagItems (which are descended
from Mash).

Check the code, isolate the bug. Produce a reproduction case and open a
ticket. Sounds trivial at best.
