Would it be possible to run Packer from a remote (Linux) system?

Hello Nathaniel,

You can run packer build on a macOS machine with Tart installed over SSH from a remote Linux system.

Supporting the remote builds functionality directly in the Packer plugin itself doesn't make much sense to me, because that'd lead to code duplication (compared to some cloud providers, where it's only way to go and everything is done via APIs.
