* Parse plugins from nested installed directories in json/non-required block HCL
* Add Packer Plugins installed test
* Add checksum validation for multi-component plugins installed by the packer plugins subcommand (#11732)
This change copies a bit of the logic in hcl2template/plugin in order to
strengthen the check for multi-component plugins installed via the
`packer plugins install` commands.
* Replace ioutil with os pkg
In go1.16 the ioutil std lib package was deprecated in favor of the os
and io packages. This change just updates all Temp creation methods to
their os pkg equivalents.

* used components that don't have a required_plugin block will make Packer 'implicitly' require those. These components are manually selected and commented for now.
* add tests
* docs
This changes wraps the plugin client start call with an anonymous function so that Packer starts a
new plugin for each occurrence of a particular plugin block.
Before only one subprocess was being created causing subsquent calls to fail as it was trying start
an already started plugin subprocess.

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"
