Expected Behavior

Variables should be able to be set when parsing the job.

Actual Behavior

Because variables are not supported when parsing a job, the job fails to parse:

╷
│ Error: error parsing job: api.UnexpectedResponseError{expected:[]int{200}, statusCode:400, statusText:"Bad Request", body:"Failed to parse job: <nil>: Unset variable \"greeting\"; A used variable must be set or have a default value; see https://www.nomadproject.io/docs/job-specification/hcl2/variables for details.", err:error(nil), additional:error(nil)}
