I have enabled a managed identity for an Azure Linux vm and extracted the 
packer executable to the Linux vm. Per the documentation, I should not need 
to pass any parameters in order to use the managed identity but keep 
getting an authorization error. What is the way to pass the managed 
identity access token into the packer buildfile? 

Managed identities for Azure resources 

Managed identities for Azure resources is the new name for the service 
formerly known as Managed Service Identity (MSI).

Managed identities is an alternative way to authorize in Azure Packer. 
Managed identities for Azure resources are automatically managed by Azure 
and enable you to authenticate to services that support Azure AD 
authentication without needing to insert credentials into your buildfile. 
Navigate to managed identities azure resources overview 
<https://docs.microsoft.com/en-gb/azure/active-directory/managed-identities-azure-resources/overview>
 
to learn more about this feature.

This feature will be used when no subscription_id, client_id or 
client_secret is set in your buildfile.
