Bump packer version to latest upstream one

Balasankar 'Balu' C requested to merge bump-packer-version into master

List of incompatibilities listed in changelog, since 0.12.2 till 1.2.5

1.1.0

  • builder/amazon: Changes way that AMI artifacts are printed out after build, aligning them to builder. Could affect output parsing. [GH-5281]
  • builder/amazon: Split enhanced_networking into sriov_support and ena_support to support finer grained control. Use packer fix <template.json> to automatically update your template to use ena_support where previously there was only enhanced_networking. Make sure to also add sriov_support if you need that feature, and to ensure ena_support is what you intended to be in your template. [GH-5284]
  • builder/cloudstack: Setup temporary SSH keypair; backwards incompatible in the uncommon case that the source image allowed SSH auth with password but not with keypair. [GH-5174]
  • communicator/ssh: Renamed ssh_disable_agent to ssh_disable_agent_forwarding. Need to run fixer on packer configs that use ssh_disable_agent. [GH-5024]
  • communicator: Preserve left-sided white-space in remote command output. Make sure any scripts that parse this output can handle the new whitespace before upgrading. [GH-5167]
  • provisioner/shell: Set default for ExpectDisconnect to false. If your script causes the connection to be reset, you should set this to true to prevent errors. [GH-5283]

0.12.3

  • provisioner/ansible: by default, the staging dir will be randomized. [GH-4472]

None of these actually affects us.
