backticks, spaces, commas

In general, a list of items should have a space after each comma.
While there are editorial styles that suggest commas inside quotations,
they're horrible advice when the backticks are describing specific
character for a user to enter.

Complete Atlas deprecation.
Removes the push command and the Atlas post-processor.  Please see our
guide on building immutable infrastructure with Packer on CI/CD for
ideas on implementing these features yourself.

DanHam c9e6ffa91c Add warning note about using the 'winrm quickconfig -q' command
A lot of examples out there on the web make use of this command to
configure the instance to allow connections over WinRM. Since the
danger is not immediately obvious and the failure because of its use
intermittent, we should do our best to advise against its use here.

DanHam dc45bd381c Manually set up all required for remote management. Use in-built FW rules
Use of 'winrm quickconfig' can sometimes cause the Packer build to fail
shortly after the WinRM connection is established.

* When executed the 'winrm quickconfig -q' command configures the
  firewall to allow management messages to be sent over HTTP (port 5985)
* This undoes the previous command in the script that configured the
  firewall to prevent this access.
* The upshot is that the system is configured and ready to accept WinRM
  connections earlier than intended.
* If Packer establishes its WinRM connection immediately after execution
  of the 'winrm quickconfig -q' command, the later commands within the
  script that restart the WinRM service cause the established
  connection, and consequently, the overall build to fail.
