Lucas Bajolet	782da90b31	packer: pick protobuf/gob for serialisation (#13025) ... As we're trying to move away from gob for serialising data over the wire, this commit adds the capability for Packer to pick dynamically between gob or protobuf for the serialisation format to communicate with plugins. As it stands, if all the plugins discovered are compatible with protobuf, and we have not forced gob usage, protobuf will be the serialisation format picked. If any plugin is not compatible with protobuf, gob will be used for communicating with all the plugins that will be used over the course of a command.	2 years ago
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.	2 years ago
