Nick Fagerlund a797152648 website: Remove extra copy of "Running Terraform in Automation", update links
This document now lives at:

- https://learn.hashicorp.com/terraform/development/running-terraform-in-automation

...and terraform.io has been redirecting to there for quite a while. This commit
removes the extra copy so that the text of the two versions doesn't drift, and
updates existing links to point to the new location.

website: Fix plugin path on Windows (#19423)
...and one other reference to the application data directory.

Context:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/shell/knownfolderid#folderid_roamingappdata

In newer Windows versions, the folder accessible as `%APPDATA%` (and via various
APIs) is actually at something like "documents and settings\user\application
data\roaming", while earlier versions omit the "\roaming" part of the path. This
means you can confuse people by referring to the "application data" directory by
its human name, because "roaming" is the real application data directory, but it
looks like a subdirectory of "application data".

Thus, it's less confusing to just use the `%APPDATA%` variable, with the added
benefit that you can copy and paste the path and it'll just work in most places.

website: Reconcile docs about plugin discovery and downloading (#18973)
website: Reconcile docs about plugin discovery and downloading

I'm attempting to keep things simple for normal users while making sure we've
got the full behavior written down somewhere for plugin developers.

This commit doesn't stand alone; it's paired with a commit in the
terraform-website repo, to deal with some related content in the "extend"
section.

Document how to provide provider plugin overrides
The docs did not mention that it is possible to provide overrides for specific
plugins by placing them into a `terraform.d/plugins/os_arch/` directory inside
the working dir.

Closes #15727.

Martin Atkins 8a7a0a7459 command: terraform init -from-module=...
This restores the earlier behavior of the first positional argument to
terraform init in 0.9, but as a command line option.

The positional argument was removed to improve consistency with other
commands that take a working directory as their first positional argument.
It was originally intended that this functionality would return in a
later release along with some other general improvements to Terraform's
module handling, but we're introducing here an interim solution that
uses the existing module source concept, to allow for easier porting of
workflows that previously depended on the automatic copy behavior.

In a future release this feature may change again as the module
improvements design firms up, but we expect it to be broadly compatible
with this temporary state.

Martin Atkins 23ef0e3247 website: more-elaborate "terraform init" docs
The "terraform init" command has a lot of different functionality now,
making it hard to follow all of the options in the previous presentation.
Instead, here we describe each of the steps and its associated options
separately, hopefully making it easier to understand what each option
relates to.

In addition, much of the detail around backend partial configuration is
factored out into the backend configuration page, where it seems more
"at home"; previously it felt hard to follow exactly how partial
configuration would be used, due to the information on it being split over
two different pages.
