This follows #8232 which added the code to generate the code required to parse
HCL files for each packer component.
All old config files of packer will keep on working the same. Packer takes one
argument. When a directory is passed, all files in the folder with a name
ending with “.pkr.hcl” or “.pkr.json” will be parsed using the HCL2 format.
When a file ending with “.pkr.hcl” or “.pkr.json” is passed it will be parsed
using the HCL2 format. For every other case; the old packer style will be used.
## 1. the hcl2template pkg can create a packer.Build from a set of HCL (v2) files
I had to make the packer.coreBuild (which is our one and only packer.Build ) a public struct with public fields
## 2. Components interfaces get a new ConfigSpec Method to read a file from an HCL file.
This is a breaking change for packer plugins.
a packer component can be a: builder/provisioner/post-processor
each component interface now gets a `ConfigSpec() hcldec.ObjectSpec`
which allows packer to tell what is the layout of the hcl2 config meant
to configure that specific component.
This ObjectSpec is sent through the wire (RPC) and a cty.Value is now
sent through the already existing configuration entrypoints:
Provisioner.Prepare(raws ...interface{}) error
Builder.Prepare(raws ...interface{}) ([]string, error)
PostProcessor.Configure(raws ...interface{}) error

Example hcl files:
```hcl
// file amazon-ebs-kms-key/run.pkr.hcl
build {
sources = [
"source.amazon-ebs.first",
]
provisioner "shell" {
inline = [
"sleep 5"
]
}
post-processor "shell-local" {
inline = [
"sleep 5"
]
}
}
// amazon-ebs-kms-key/source.pkr.hcl
source "amazon-ebs" "first" {
ami_name = "hcl2-test"
region = "us-east-1"
instance_type = "t2.micro"
kms_key_id = "c729958f-c6ba-44cd-ab39-35ab68ce0a6c"
encrypt_boot = true
source_ami_filter {
filters {
virtualization-type = "hvm"
name = "amzn-ami-hvm-????.??.?.????????-x86_64-gp2"
root-device-type = "ebs"
}
most_recent = true
owners = ["amazon"]
}
launch_block_device_mappings {
device_name = "/dev/xvda"
volume_size = 20
volume_type = "gp2"
delete_on_termination = "true"
}
launch_block_device_mappings {
device_name = "/dev/xvdf"
volume_size = 500
volume_type = "gp2"
delete_on_termination = true
encrypted = true
}
ami_regions = ["eu-central-1"]
run_tags {
Name = "packer-solr-something"
stack-name = "DevOps Tools"
}
communicator = "ssh"
ssh_pty = true
ssh_username = "ec2-user"
associate_public_ip_address = true
}

* I had to contextualise Communicator.Start and RemoteCmd.StartWithUi
NOTE: Communicator.Start starts a RemoteCmd but RemoteCmd.StartWithUi will run the cmd and wait for a return, so I renamed StartWithUi to RunWithUi so that the intent is clearer.
Ideally in the future RunWithUi will be named back to StartWithUi and the exit status or wait funcs of the command will allow to wait for a return. If you do so please read carrefully https://golang.org/pkg/os/exec/#Cmd.Stdout to avoid a deadlock
* cmd.ExitStatus to cmd.ExitStatus() is now blocking to avoid race conditions
* also had to simplify StartWithUi
* It is possible to set remote salt tree through `remote_state_tree` argument.
* It is possible to set remote pillar root through `remote_pillar_roots` argument.
* Directories `remote_state_tree` and `remote_pillar_roots` are emptied before use.
Fixes the following vet reports:

This changes the SaltStack bootstrap URL to use the HTTPS link from the commercial site. Alternatives are the HTTPS link to the raw file on GitHub, but this, whilst more transparent, might break down the line.
