Feature Description
Currently, you cannot set the vga property in a Proxmox qemu template. The Proxmox default is a very limited vga adapter.
Use Case(s)
When creating Proxmox templates with GUIs, such as an Ubuntu Desktop instance, setting a non-default vga device is the only way to get reasonable screen resolutions above 800x600.
Notes
Upon closer inspection, it appears the Go Proxmox library Packer is using already supports setting the vga adapter.
I currently have a fork with the changes working locally. Once I test it more, I will submit a PR, though I've never actually written Go code before so I am not sure if it will be suitable.
