In order to test the Packer subcommands, some tests rely on a plugin:
github.com/sylviamoss/comment.
This plugin is outdated compared to our SDK, and some of the binaries
releases don't match what is expected by Packer, i.e. v1.0.0 vs. v0.2.8.
To fix that, we migrate to use the hashicups plugin, which is our demo
plugin for Packer, and is actually maintained, and up-to-date, which
will make those tests more reliable moving forward.
Since we're removing the alternative plugin installation directories in
favour of only supporting installing them in the PACKER_PLUGIN_PATH
directory, we only return one directory when getting the known plugin
directories.
Single-component plugins are a relic from the past that has been
deprecated from version 1.7.0 and onwards.
Since we're revisiting how plugins are installed/loaded, and the changes
will be incompatible with those, we remove them in preparation of this
work.
When users call `packer init' on a template that does not specify a
`required_plugin' block, the command succeeds but does nothing, which is
not helpful for users that may expect their plugins to install.
To remedy that problem, we now output a message like what `packer
plugins required' does on templates without such a block, so that users
have an idea of what to change in order to get the command to work.

This commit replaces `os.Setenv` with `t.Setenv` in tests. The
environment variable is automatically restored to its original value
when the test and all its subtests complete.
