Description

It would be nice to have an explicit property to enable nested virtualization (aka VHV (Virtual Hardware-Assisted Virtualization)) by editing the vhv.enable vmx property.

Currently, I'm using vmx_data as:

"vmx_data": {
  "vhv.enable": "TRUE"
},

Use Case(s)

A explicit property makes packer more accessible.

Potential configuration

{
  "vhv_enable": true,
}
