Martin Atkins a3403f2766 terraform: Ugly huge change to weave in new State and Plan types
Due to how often the state and plan types are referenced throughout
Terraform, there isn't a great way to switch them out gradually. As a
consequence, this huge commit gets us from the old world to a _compilable_
new world, but still has a large number of known test failures due to
key functionality being stubbed out.

The stubs here are for anything that interacts with providers, since we
now need to do the follow-up work to similarly replace the old
terraform.ResourceProvider interface with its replacement in the new
"providers" package. That work, along with work to fix the remaining
failing tests, will follow in subsequent commits.

The aim here was to replace all references to terraform.State and its
downstream types with states.State, terraform.Plan with plans.Plan,
state.State with statemgr.State, and switch to the new implementations of
the state and plan file formats. However, due to the number of times those
types are used, this also ended up affecting numerous other parts of core
such as terraform.Hook, the backend.Backend interface, and most of the CLI
commands.

Just as with 5861dbf3fc49b19587a31816eb06f511ab861bb4 before, I apologize
in advance to the person who inevitably just found this huge commit while
spelunking through the commit history.

Martin Atkins 3bb731e2d6 statemgr: Helper funcs RefreshAndRead and WriteAndPersist
In practice these pairs of functions are often used together when working
with a "full" statemgr, so these helper wrappers allow us to do that more
conveniently.

This also introduces a new interface statemgr.Storage, which represents
a state manager that has all of the storage capabilities but does not
necessarily support locking. In practice callers will usually just use
statemgr.Full, but these more-specific interfaces allow us to reflect
in APIs which subset of the statemgr functionality each function depends
on.

Martin Atkins 05936df0e7 statemgr: Backup file support for statemgr.Filesystem
In the old state package we had this as a separate manager
state.BackupState, but that doesn't work with our new interfaces because
we handle lineage and serial within the state managers themselves and
don't expose them to callers anymore.

In practice it being built in to the filesystem manager is not a problem
because we only use the backup functionality for local state anyway.

This also slightly adjusts the behavior to be more intuitive. The old
BackupState relied on the implementation detail that Terraform re-persists
the original state early in an apply operation, which meant that by
coincidence it would back up the right snapshot. In this new approach,
we instead take an in-memory copy during State and then write _that_ to
disk in WriteState if the new state seems different, so we're guaranteed
that we'll always write out what we read before any changes were made.

In future we may improve this further, such as keeping multiple
generations of backups, etc. But for now this is intended to preserve the
goals of the original implementation while making its behavior
self-contained and not dependent on coincidences.

Martin Atkins 53cafc542b statemgr: New package for state managers
This idea of a "state manager" was previously modelled via the
confusingly-named state.State interface, which we've been calling a "state
manager" only in some local variable names in situations where there were
also *terraform.State variables.

As part of reworking our state models to make room for the new type
system, we also need to change what was previously the state.StateReader
interface. Since we've found the previous organization confusing anyway,
here we just copy all of those interfaces over into statemgr where we can
make the relationship to states.State hopefully a little clearer.

This is not yet a complete move of the functionality from "state", since
we're not yet ready to break existing callers. In a future commit we'll
turn the interfaces in the old "state" package into aliases of the
interfaces in this package, and update all the implementers of what will
by then be statemgr.Reader to use *states.State instead of
*terraform.State.

This also includes an adaptation of what was previously state.LocalState
into statemgr.FileSystem, using the new state serialization functionality
from package statefile instead of the old terraform.ReadState and
terraform.WriteState.
