Hi

I have a running instance with lots of changes applied manually.
I need that instances disk now to be converted to a bootable image using 
packer, so that I can consume 
that image to launch other instances using that original instance as source 
of base image.

gcloud cli supports that feature, but I didn't see anything packer docs.
