This PR adds box architecture support. It introduces a new setting to
the vm configuration within the Vagrantfile:
Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
config.vm.box = "box-name"
config.vm.box_architecture = "amd64"
end
In most circumstances, this setting will not be needed. By default it
is set to a special value of :auto. The behavior when set to :auto is
as follows: Vagrant will determine the architecture of the host and automatically
request it from the box repository. If architecture information is available in
the repository metadata and a matching architecture was not found, Vagrant will
look for a box with an architecture of "unknown" and flagged as the default
architecture. This behavior allows Vagrant to continue working correctly with
boxes currently published on Vagrant Cloud that do not include architecture
information.
The box_architecture setting can also be set to nil, which will prevent
any architecture filtering being performed, and the box flagged as the default
architecture will be used.
The box collection will now unpack boxes based on architecture. Special handling
is done when box_architecture is set to :auto which prevents Vagrant from
not properly detecting boxes installed without architecture support.
The vagrant cloud commands have been updated to include architecture support
where required. These updates are dependent on hashicorp/vagrant_cloud#82
