Add note for unmaintained community-supported plugins
This change borrowed from Terraform's [archived provider documentation](https://www.terraform.io/docs/internals/archiving.html) adds a documentation partial that can be applied to any provisioner plugin that is not actively maintained by Packer or the community. A call to action for anyone interested in supporting the plugin has been added to the Packer README until a better location is made available. * Mark the salt-masterless plugin as unmaintained

## Unmaintained Plugins
|
||||
As contributors' circumstances change, development on a community-maintained
|
||||
plugins can slow. When this happens, the Packer team may mark a plugin as
|
||||
unmaintained, to clearly signal the plugin's status to users.
|
||||
|
||||
What does **unmaintained** mean?
|
||||
|
||||
1. The code repository and all commit history will still be available.
|
||||
1. Documentation will remain on the Packer website.
|
||||
1. Issues and pull requests are monitored as a best effort.
|
||||
1. No active development will be performed by the Packer team.
|
||||
|
||||
If anyone from the community or an interested third party is willing to
|
||||
maintain a community supported plugin, they can fork the repository for
|
||||
their own uses. If you are interested in maintaining a plugin that has been
|
||||
marked as unmaintained, please reach out via [Packer's Issue Tracker](https://github.com/hashicorp/packer/issues/)

master.
