helper/experiment: a helper for setting, making experiments

This creates a standard package and interface for defining, querying,
setting experiments (`-X` flags).

I expect we'll want to continue to introduce various features behind
experimental flags. I want to make doing this as easy as possible and I
want to make _removing_ experiments as easy as possible as well.

The goal with this packge has been to rely on the compiler enforcing our
experiment references as much as possible. This means that every
experiment is a global variable that must be referenced directly, so
when it is removed you'll get compiler errors where the experiment is
referenced.

This also unifies and makes it easy to grab CLI flags to enable/disable
experiments as well as env vars! This way defining an experiment is just
a couple lines of code (documented on the package).

// experiment package contains helper functions for tracking experimental
// features throughout Terraform.
//
// This package should be used for creating, enabling, querying, and deleting
// experimental features. By unifying all of that onto a single interface,
// we can have the Go compiler help us by enforcing every place we touch
// an experimental feature.
//
// To create a new experiment:
//
// 1. Add the experiment to the global vars list below, prefixed with X_
//
// 2. Add the experiment variable to the All listin the init() function
//
// 3. Use it!
//
// To remove an experiment:
//
// 1. Delete the experiment global var.
//
// 2. Try to compile and fix all the places where the var was referenced.
//
// To use an experiment:
//
// 1. Use Flag() if you want the experiment to be available from the CLI.
//
// 2. Use Enabled() to check whether it is enabled.
//
// As a general user:
//
// 1. The `-Xexperiment-name` flag
// 2. The `TF_X_<experiment-name>` env var.
// 3. The `TF_X_FORCE` env var can be set to force an experimental feature
// without human verifications.
