cpu_type broken since 1.2.2

[cerowain]

Overview of the Issue

When provisioning the VM from packer cpu_type is not being passed to proxmox resulting in all hosts taking the default value regardless of cpu_type setting. This works in 1.2.1

Suspected Cause

proxmox-api-go defines QemuCPU as

type QemuCPU struct {
	Affinity     *[]uint          `json:"affinity,omitempty"`
	Cores        *QemuCpuCores    `json:"cores,omitempty"` // Required during creation
	Flags        *CpuFlags        `json:"flags,omitempty"`
	Limit        *CpuLimit        `json:"limit,omitempty"`
	Numa         *bool            `json:"numa,omitempty"`
	Sockets      *QemuCpuSockets  `json:"sockets,omitempty"`
	Type         *CpuType         `json:"type,omitempty"`
	Units        *CpuUnits        `json:"units,omitempty"`
	VirtualCores *CpuVirtualCores `json:"vcores,omitempty"`
}

In change 75dded5, in step_start_vm.go CpuType is not passed through in the config.

While I can spot the issue, my skills at committing are lacking. Don't blame me, I'm just a sysadmin. :)

Reproduction Steps

Set cpu_type = "x86-64-v3" within proxmox-iso source section. The resulting VM will have type kvm64

Plugin and Packer version

Packer v1.11.2
packer-plugin-proxmox_v1.2.2

The same for me, cpu_type parameter does not work in 1.2.2 :(
