Martin Atkins f93f7e5b5c configs/configupgrade: Remove redundant list brackets
In early versions of Terraform where the interpolation language didn't
have any real list support, list brackets around a single string was the
signal to split the string on a special uuid separator to produce a list
just in time for processing, giving expressions like this:

    foo = ["${test_instance.foo.*.id}"]

Logically this is weird because it looks like it should produce a list
of lists of strings. When we added real list support in Terraform 0.7 we
retained support for this behavior by trimming off extra levels of list
during evaluation, and inadvertently continued relying on this notation
for correct type checking.

During the Terraform 0.10 line we fixed the type checker bugs (a few
remaining issues notwithstanding) so that it was finally possible to
use the more intuitive form:

    foo = "${test_instance.foo.*.id}"

...but we continued trimming off extra levels of list for backward
compatibility.

Terraform 0.12 finally removes that compatibility shim, causing redundant
list brackets to be interpreted as a list of lists.

This upgrade rule attempts to identify situations that are relying on the
old compatibility behavior and trim off the redundant extra brackets. It's
not possible to do this fully-generally using only static analysis, but
we can gather enough information through or partial type inference
mechanism here to deal with the most common situations automatically and
produce a TF-UPGRADE-TODO comment for more complex scenarios where the
user intent isn't decidable with only static analysis.

In particular, this handles by far the most common situation of wrapping
list brackets around a splat expression like the first example above.
After this and the other upgrade rules are applied, the first example
above will become:

    foo = test_instance.foo.*.id

Martin Atkins ef017345f1 configs/configupgrade: Upgrade the resource "lifecycle" nested block
The main tricky thing here is ignore_changes, which contains strings that
are better given as naked traversals in 0.12. We also handle here mapping
the old special case ["*"] value to the new "all" keyword.

Martin Atkins 4b5d31d35d configs/configupgrade: Rules-based upgrade for "locals" block
Previously we were handling this one as a special case, effectively
duplicating most of the logic from upgradeBlockBody.

By doing some prior analysis of the block we can produce a "rules" that
just passes through all of the attributes as-is, allowing us to reuse
upgradeBlockBody. This is a little weird for the locals block since
everything in it is user-selected names, but this facility will also be
useful in a future commit for dealing with module blocks, which contain
a mixture of user-chosen and reserved argument names.

Martin Atkins e83976c008 configs/configupgrade: Print trailing comments inside blocks
Previously we were erroneously moving these out of their original block
into the surrounding body. Now we'll make sure to collect up any remaining
ad-hoc comments inside a nested block body before closing it.

Martin Atkins 6596d031d9 configs/configupgrade: Convert block-as-attr to dynamic blocks
Users discovered that they could exploit some missing validation in
Terraform v0.11 and prior to treat block types as if they were attributes
and assign dynamic expressions to them, with some significant caveats and
gotchas resulting from the fact that this was never intended to work.

However, since such patterns are in use in the wild we'll convert them
to a dynamic block during upgrade. With only static analysis we must
unfortunately generate a very conservative, ugly dynamic block with
every possible argument set. Users ought to then clean up the generated
configuration after confirming which arguments are actually required.

This includes the backend configuration, so we need to load the requested
backend and migrate the included configuration per that schema.

Martin Atkins c755745285 configs/configupgrade: Generalize migration of block bodies
The main area of interest in upgrading is dealing with special cases for
individual block items, so this generalization allows us to use the same
overall body-processing logic for everything but to specialize just how
individual items are dealt with, which we match by their names as given
in the original input source code.
