Lucas Bajolet 5ce9b1867b datasource: add file datasource
The file datasource is meant to be used to pre-create a file that can
then be used elsewhere in the build process by its path.

This is useful for example when building a configuration file from a
template, so then the resulting file can be referenced by components
which only accept file paths.

Lucas Bajolet 7f056211d9 commands: rename plugin to execute
The plugin and plugins command had a name that was close, and while
plugin is not supposed to be directly called by Packer users, this could
happen by accident while trying to execute packer plugins subcommands,
and when it does, the error messages are far from explicit, so unless
they understand what Packer is doing here, they'll likely be lost.

To reduce the risk of confusion, we rename the command to run packer
embedded components as execute.
