What does this Pull Request accomplish?

This Pull Request adds a new Post-Install Custom Action.vi to the InstrumentStudio Plug-In Generator.vipb build specification. This post-install custom action fixes the path of the InstrumentStudio Plug-In Template.gplugindata file in the plugin library template, which is mangled by VIPB during package installation.

Context
VIPB appears to have a bug that mangles the path of the .gplugindata file in the plugin library template during package installation.
Path to the '.gplugindata' file as mentioned in the template library file present in source:
image

Path to the '.gplugindata' file as mentioned in the template library file present in the deployed location:
image

Note
The mangled path interestingly does not affect the plugin generation process in the Generator tool.

Why should this Pull Request be merged?

This Pull Request should be merged to fix the mangled path to the InstrumentStudio Plug-In Template.gplugindata file in the plugin library template during package installation, and to ensure proper linkage between deployed files and their libraries.

What testing has been done?

Built package, installed and verified proper linkage between deployed files and the libraries.
