Description

In the SharedImageGalleryDestination object, it would be nice to have the subscription as an option. The current configuration falls back to the current subscription packer is running in. It would be the same idea as the "source" (i.e. SharedImageGallery) where it can be filled in.

If the option is not provided, the fallback would be to use the current subscriptionId

Use Case(s)

Individuals/companies may have a central SIG that they use for all their provisioning

Potential configuration

"shared_image_gallery_destination": {
    "subscription": "00000000-0000-0000-0000-00000000000",
    "resource_group": "ResourceGroup",
    "gallery_name": "GalleryName",
    "image_name": "ImageName",
    "image_version": "1.0.0",
    "replication_regions": ["regionA", "regionB", "regionC"]
}

Hey @DOMZE, thanks for reaching out! We'll take a look when we get a chance. I think it makes sense and looking at the code this seems to be possible.
