This change borrowed from Terraform's [archived provider
documentation](https://www.terraform.io/docs/internals/archiving.html)
adds a documentation partial that can be applied to any provisioner
plugin that is not actively maintained by Packer or the community. A
call to action for anyone interested in supporting the plugin has been
added to the Packer README until a better location is made available.
* Mark the salt-masterless plugin as unmaintained
By default the Google builder will wrap any provided startup script file
in order to track its execution via custom metadata. The wrapper script
can add a bit of complexity to the start script file so a new option is
being added `wrap_startup_script`. This option allows a user to disable
the script wrapping and just let GCE do its own thing when executing a
startup script.
#9444 allows to share builder infos with provisioners and post-processor by re-starting new provisioners and post-processors once the build has started; #9490 allows to 'excpect/only' on a full build blocks (after naming a block), merged together, the tests of #9490 fail. This means we would have to reimplement the only/except logic. While this could have worked, re-using the already started provisioners and post-processor for HCL2 is better/simpler IMO as we won't have to maintain a feature parity.
Also with HCL2 and go-cty all struct ( here provisioner/post-processor) fields are set at the moment of configuring so we should not get weird 'default value' behaviour issue.
This PR reverts some parts of #9444 and implement #9444 in a different manner: I created specific HCL2Provisioner and HCL2PostProcessor structs that both re-prepare themselves right before provisioning. I think this makes the code a little simpler and lays a nice ground for improvement.
