This is part of a general effort to move all of Terraform's non-library
package surface under internal in order to reinforce that these are for
internal use within Terraform only.
If you were previously importing packages under this prefix into an
external codebase, you could pin to an earlier release tag as an interim
solution until you've make a plan to achieve the same functionality some
other way.
For unit testing in particular we can't launch a real browser for testing,
so this indirection is primarily to allow us to substitute a mock when
testing a command that can launch a browser.
This includes a simple mock implementation that expects to interact with
a running web server directly.
