By default, go get determines parallelism based on the number of
cores available. Those show up as 32 in the Travis CI environment
but a virtual machine is limited both by the amount of cores it
has allocated and the amount of memory available to it. 32 parallel
build processes are likely to exhaust the memory resources, leading
to killed processes.
This change reduces the number of builds running concurrently to 2,
which should reduce the likelihood of memory exhaustion greatly.
The number could probably be dialed up a little bit, but this should
give a good default reflecting the environment's resources.
Add configuration option to explicitly control where Packer uploads
ISO and floppy files to on ESXi hosts. The `remote_cache_datastore`
defaults to the `remote_datastore` value. The 'remote_cache_directory'
defaults to 'packer_cache', similar to the local caching capabilities.
Addresses issues with [GH-1218] and [GH-1221] where paths for uploaded
ISO and floppy files are not written to a valid location in the
datastore.
