Jinja variable 'str object' has no attribute 'paths'

Hello!

With no pillar data, the formula currently fails with this error. Here is the failed state:

       ----------
                 ID: filebeat.config
           Function: file.managed
               Name: /etc/filebeat/filebeat.yml
             Result: False
            Comment: Unable to manage file: Jinja variable 'str object' has no attribute 'paths'

            Changes:   

I found this while applying a test suite for this formula. Test suite and fix coming soon!

Here is the issue.

The defaults are strings, and the template tries to use them as a thing with an attribute.
