Prior to Terraform 0.7, lists in Terraform were just a shallow abstraction
on top of strings with a magic delimiter between items. Wrapping a single
string in brackets in the configuration was Terraform's prompt that it
needed to split the string on that delimiter during interpolation.
In 0.7, when first-class lists were added, this convention was preserved
by flattening lists-of-lists by one level when they were encountered in
configuration. However, there was an oversight in that change where it
did not correctly handle the case where the inner list was unknown.
In #14135 we removed some code that was flattening partially-unknown lists
into fully-unknown (untyped) values. This inadvertently exposed the missed
case from the previous paragraph, causing issues for list-wrapped splat
expressions with unknown members. While this worked fine for resources,
due to some fixup done inside helper/schema, this did not work for other
interpolation contexts such as module blocks.
Various attempts to fix this up and restore the flattening behavior
selectively were unsuccessful, due to a proliferation of assumptions all
over the core code that would be too risky to change just to fix this bug.
This change, then, takes the different approach of removing the
requirement that splats be presented inside list brackets. This
requirement didn't make much sense anymore anyway, since no other
list-returning expression had this constraint and so the rest of Terraform
was already successfully dealing with both cases.
This leaves us with two different scenarios:
- For resource arguments, existing normalization code in helper/schema
does its own flattening that preserves compatibility with the common
practice of using bracketed splats. This change proves this with a test
within the "test" provider that exercises the whole Terraform core and
helper/schema stack that assigns bracketed splats to list and set
attributes.
- For arguments in other blocks, such as in module callsites, the
interpolator's own flattening behavior applies to known lists,
preserving compatibility with configurations from before
partially-computed splats were possible, but those wishing to use
partially-computed splats are required to drop the surrounding brackets.
This is less concerning because this scenario was introduced only in
0.9.5, so the scope for breakage is limited to those who adopted this
new feature quickly after upgrading.
As of this commit, the recommendation is to stop using brackets around
splats but the old form continues to be supported for backward
compatibility. In a future _major_ version of Terraform we will probably
phase out this legacy form to improve consistency, but for now both
forms are acceptable at the expense of some (pre-existing) weird behavior
when _actual_ lists-of-lists are used.
This addresses #14521 by officially adopting the suggested workaround of
dropping the brackets around the splat. However, it doesn't yet allow
passing of a partially-unknown list between modules: that still violates
assumptions in Terraform's core, so for the moment partially-unknown lists
work only within a _single_ interpolation expression, and cannot be
passed around between expressions. Until more holistic work is done to
improve Terraform's type handling, passing a partially-unknown splat
through to a module will result in a fully-unknown list emerging on
the other side, just as was the case before #14135; this change just
addresses the fact that this was failing with an error in 0.9.5.
In the old remote state system we had the idea of a local backup, which
is actually still present for the legacy backends but no longer applies
for the new-style backends like the s3 backend.
It's problematic when an apply runs for long enough that someone's
time-limited AWS STS credentials expire and then Terraform fails and can't
persist state to S3.
To reduce the risk of lost state, here we add some extra fallback code
for the local apply operation in particular. If either state writing
or state persisting fail then we attempt to write the state to a special
backup file errored.tfstate, and produce an error message that guides the
user on how to retry uploading this state.
In the unlikely event that we can't write to local disk either (e.g.
permissions problems) we take a last-ditch attempt to dump the JSON onto
stdout and advise the user to manually copy it into a file for import.
If even that doesn't work for some reason, we assume a critical Terraform
bug (JSON-serialization problem with states?) and bail out with an
apologetic error message.
This is implemented for the apply command in particular because this is
the one command where new objects are created in real APIs that we don't
want to lose track of. For other operations it's less bad to just generate
a simple error message and have the user retry.
This fixes#14298.
* Support importing google_sql_user
* Updated documentation to reflect that passwords are not retrieved.
* Added additional documentation detailing use.
* Removed unneeded d.setId() line from GoogleSqlUser Read method.

Instead of using a hardcoded version prerelease string, which makes release automation difficult, set the version prerelease string from an environment variable via the go linker tool during compile time.
The environment variable `TF_RELEASE` should only be set via the `make bin` target, and thus leaves the version prerelease string unset. Otherwise, when running a local compile of terraform via the `make dev` makefile target, the version prerelease string is set to `"dev"`, as usual.
This also requires some changes to both the circonus and postgresql providers, as they directly used the `VersionPrerelease` constant. We now simply call the `VersionString()` function, which returns the proper interpolated version string with the prerelease string populated correctly.

During an instance shut-down network interfaces may be detached during the `READ` method of a Terraform run.
This protects the case where a network interface was detached, and is now `nil` at the time of the Terraform run, fixing nil pointer dereferences.
