In vagrant long_descriptions, example code bash variables get substituted

[deargle]

This is correct most of the time, but breaks the script showing how to pull the latest version of vagrant.

Specifically,

VAGRANT_LATEST_VERSION=$(curl -s https://checkpoint-api.hashicorp.com/v1/check/vagrant\
  | jq -r -M '.current_version')
dnf install https://releases.hashicorp.com/vagrant/${VAGRANT_LATEST_VERSION}/vagrant_${VAGRANT_LATEST_VERSION}_x86_64.rpm

gets rendered on vagrantup.com as:

I'm not sure how to fix it, but relevant lines:

packer-templates/upload_box_to_vagrantcloud.sh

Line 80 in 19143b1

LONG_DESCRIPTION=$(envsubst < templates/my_centos.md)

The issue should be fixed by #155

It should be fixed in all descriptions.
