Yup, taking in to account #2095 (comment), there's no need to expose SourceProvenance to achieve this. |

I've updated this branch as per my previous comment, but this still requires a test. |

This allows multi-source source plugins to provide this information per source rather than as a singular top level. This is done by adding a `provenance_node` parameter to `create_source_info()` that when specified overrides the use of the source's top level source provenance info.

Fixes #2073
This PR provides a way for multi-source plugins to provide source provenance info in their own way instead of only the top level source source info being used.
This is done by exposing the optional
source_provenance_attrsargument tocreate_source_info()which when used overrides the usage of the default provenance for a source. Any plugin that needs to parse provenance in it's own way can then supply it's results using this. This has been trialled with thecargo2source plugin in https://gitlab.com/BuildStream/buildstream-plugins-community/-/merge_requests/408.
