Tests / evaluates if local device is a member of a cluster or a standalone server

.Synopsis
   Evaluates if local device is a member of a cluster or a standalone server
.DESCRIPTION
   Evaluates several factors to determine if device is a member of a cluster or acting as a standalone server. The cluster service is evaluated, and if present the cluster nodes will be tested to determine if the local device is a member. If the cluster service is not running the cluster registry location is evaluated to determine if the server's cluster membership status.
.EXAMPLE
    Test-IsACluster

    Returns boolean if local device is part of a cluster
.OUTPUTS
   Boolean value

   The design of this function intends the function to be run on the device that is being evaluated
