The future of subclassing things like configuration bases and so on will
be to use `Vagrant.plugin(version, component)`. For example:
`Vagrant.plugin("1", :provisioner)`.
Before, the tempfile "f" could be GC'd before the path was used,
resulting in failed tests because when it is GC'd the tempfile is
removed. We now store the tempfile in an instance variable so that it
isn't even available for GC until after the test is finished running.
Tests before were picking up a Vagrantfile in the Vagrant source
directory, which can cause some funny failures. This ensures that each
test run will actually establish a new temporary CWD so that a
Vagrantfile is hopefully never found.
The basic process for this is to:
1. Load the configuration using the proper loader for that version. i.e.
if you're loading V1 config, then use the V1 loader.
2. If we just loaded a version that isn't current (imagine we're
currently at V3), then we need to upgrade that config. So we first
ask the V2 loader to upgrade the V1 config to V2, then we ask the V3
loader to upgrade the V2 config to V3. We keep track of warnings and
errors throughout this process.
3. Finally, we have a current config, so we merge it into the in-process
configuration that is being loaded.
This moves out the concept of a "default VM" from the Environment class
and makes it the responsibility of the V1 configuration that at least
one VM is defined on it. This lets the configuration ultimately decide
what a "default" implementation is.
This is useful so that it can take a look at the final loaded
configuration object and possibly make some tweaks to the configuration
object. The use case this was built for was so that config V1 can verify
that there is always at least a single VM defined as a sub-VM, the
"default" VM.
Previously, all procs were assumed to just be the current version. This
is certainly not going to be true always so now the version number of
the configuration must be explicit if you're assigning a proc to the
configuration loader.
This means that the Config::Loader now only knows how to load
configuration for versions used to initialize the class. This lets
things like the tests be completely isolated from what the actual
configuration is for Vagrant. This will be immensely useful to verify
that the loader functionality works for non-trivial bits (like
upgrading) without depending on Vagrant's upgrading functionality.
Since we're not calling this lambda from inside a method, the `return`
causes a LocalJumpError on 1.8.x. It appears this functionality works
fine on 1.9.x but we'd like to support both. The correct behavior
appears to use `next`.
I wanted to define my dotfile as: `config.vagrant.dotfile_name =
"~/.vagrant-projectname"` and noticed that the full path wasn't
expanded as expected.
This patch allows the vagrant file to be placed anywhere on the
filesystem.
There was an issue before where the stdin buffer would always have space
so it would always yield that block and Ruby would spin at 100%. Now we
require all callers to say what they want to listen for. This drops
CPU down to almost nothing.

Easy commands can now easily get arguments from the command line.
Using `arg`, you can get named arguments on the command line, such as
"--foo" or "-f"
With `arg_extra`, you can get any remaining arguments after a "--"
on the command line, which is a common pattern used to grab longer
parameters.
Some new APIs were added to the easy command operations. `info`,
`error`, and `success` are simple ways to output messages to the UI
without resorting to "puts" in Ruby, since the Vagrant UI object is the
idiomatic way to do communication with the world.
Additionally, `argv` was added which gives commands access to the
command-line arguments that are remaining that does not include the
vagrant binary or subcommand.
Also, behavior was changed: Previously, easy commands would run for
every target VM. Now, it is only run once with the primary VM. In the
next commit, I plan on adding a new flag that signifies an easy command
is meant to work with a named VM.
