This change adds text around how plugin selection for plugins defined in
a require_plugins block work. It also adds a small call out to users
that third party plugins are not verified by HashiCorp.

This adds the new `required_plugins` block to be nested under the packer block.
Example:
```hcl
packer {
required_plugins {
aws = {
version = ">= 2.7.0"
source = "azr/aws"
}
azure = ">= 2.7.0"
}
}
```
For example on darwin_amd64 Packer will install those under :
* "${PACKER_HOME_DIR}/plugin/github.com/azr/amazon/packer-plugin-amazon_2.7.0_x5.0_darwin_amd64"
* "${PACKER_HOME_DIR}/plugin/github.com/hashicorp/azure/packer-plugin-azure_2.7.0_x5.0_darwin_amd64_x5"
+ docs
+ tests
The docs for top-level and build-level source blocks did not make it clear enough, early enough in the page, how packer merges their contents and fails when ambiguities arise from redefinition. I know the info it there, but it's at the end and I feel that my modification shortens the page overall while putting the most useful info front and center.
Also, there is simply an error in the note at the end of this page, which further confuses the situation for new readers trying to use HCL and reuse source blocks. It's referring to a non-existent amazon source which is probably a past copy/paste error.
It took me a day to get re-usable source blocks working, bc I skimmed the page at first (I know slap my wrist), but didn't really grasp what it was saying in the Note at the end, and found it confusing. It wasn't until I found the Issues and PRs related to this feature getting added last April/May that I realized how it was implemented that I started to grasp what this was saying.

messaging to the user.
LONGER DESCRIPTION
If vnc_min_port is set to anything above 5900, then packer will fail to
connect via VNC to the QEMU instance. This is due to how QEMU parses
the port for listening to VNC:
host:d
TCP connections will only be allowed from host on
display d. By convention the TCP port is 5900+d.
Previously the calculation for the port was vncPort - VNCPortMin,
however this will result in an incorrect port being displayed in
packer's messages and potentially packer being unable to connect via VNC
to the host.
For example if vnc_port_min=5990 nad vnc_port_max=5999:
```
Looking for available port between 5990 and 5999 on 0.0.0.0
Found available port: 5996 on IP: 0.0.0.0
Found available VNC port: 5996 on IP: 0.0.0.0
[....]
==> Starting VM, booting disk image
view the screen of the VM, connect via VNC without a password to
vnc://0.0.0.0:6
```
This will cause QEMU to set the listening port to 5906 while packer's
VNC client is attempting to connect to 5996.
I am a touch concerned as this commit undoes pull request #9905
(specfically commit 7335695c), but I am also confused as to how he was
able to get QEMU to get a VNC listening port below 5900, as examining
QEMU's git history has shown that this behavior has been in since at
least 2017, probably older.
Hopefully the more explicit error messaging and documentation can make
it clear why this is being undone.
* Update docs on ebs encrypt_boot to clarify that packer will not override global account settings
* Update struct-markdown generator and regenerate partials with new website location. This overwrites some linting that got automatically applied when the files got moved

* HCL2: Test that the packer block passes in packer validate
* HCL2: Test invalid packer blocks are invalid
* docs: state from which version the packer block is available
* Add packer fmt command
This change adds a new command that allows users to format one or more
HCL2 Packer configuration template files.
Related to: #9174
* command/fmt: Add check flag
Packer's fmt command now supports a check flag that will output the name
of any file that would be changed by the HCL2 formatting engine. The
check flag is mutually exclusive with the write flag and will only check
if formatting is needed.
The update write flag will now overwrite the source files with the newly
formatted HCL2 source unless the `-write=false` or `-check` is passed at
the command line.
* Returns a diagnostic error if Format is unable to show a diff - equivalent to `terraform fmt`
* Updates testing to run against #Format and not the private methods of the HCL2Formatter; fixes ShowDiff test failure on Windows
* Updates comments for exported functions
* Add docs for fmt command
Vagrant Cloud provides support for uploading directly to the backend
storage instead of streaming through Vagrant Cloud. This adds support
for direct to storage uploads and sets it as the default upload method.
A new option has been added to disable this behavior and revert back
to streaming upload via Vagrant Cloud (`no_direct_upload`).
This default for uploading directly to the backend storage also matches
up with changes being added to Vagrant proper for box upload behavior:
