// The plugin package provides the functionality to both expose a Packer
// plugin binary and to connect to an existing Packer plugin binary.
//
// Packer supports plugins in the form of self-contained external static
// Go binaries. These binaries behave in a certain way (enforced by this
// package) and are connected to in a certain way (also enforced by this
// package).
