This change adds a new set of maps for builders, provisioners, and
post-processors that store reference to components that were once part
of Packer and are now vendored. This file acts as a single place for
defining this vendored components, which are then merged into the main
components maps to be used in Packer.
Quick test to ensure the exoscale-import post-processor is still loaded
```
// Validate that exoscale-import is in the know post-procoessors list

This change removes the generation of command/plugin.go so that plugin
registration can be managed manually. As we begin to break out plugins
we will need to begin modifying this file, possibly with stubs to allow
for the removal of plugins without breaking Packer's backwards
compatibility with 1.7.0. After 1.8.0 is released we should be able to
revet these changes so that we can continue to generate the plugin
file for those plugins core to Packer.
* fix random nil pointer dereference I found while debugging hcl2_upgrade issues
* fix hcl2_upgrade command by creating passthroughs for all text template fields
* show error as to why plugin discovery failed
* allow to run more manual tests after a plugin installation
* test that a freshly installed external plugin can run
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
* change beta tag
* remove beta tag from hcl2_upgrade comment
* add a partial to describe the legacy json limitations
* exclude legacy category from templates until it is deployed to the website
