When installing plugins with the `packer plugins install --path' command, the metadata is now scrubbed from the file installed locally. This is as a protection against collisions in the versions, as metadata is meaningless for version comparison, so if two versions of the same plugin are installed, the precedence order between them is undefined. Therefore to avoid such collisions, we remove the metadata from the file name, that way if two successive versions of a plugin include metadata in the version, they won't coexist, and the last installed will be the only installed version locally.pull/12900/head
