We've been moving away from config fields expecting file paths that Terraform will load, instead prefering fields that expect file contents, leaning on `file()` to do loading from a path. This helps with consistency and also flexibility - since this makes it easier to shift sensitive files into environment variables. Here we add a little helper package to manage the transitional period for these fields where we support both behaviors. Also included is the first of several fields being shifted over - SSH private keys in provisioner connection config. We're moving to new field names so the behavior is more intuitive, so instead of `key_file` it's `private_key` now. Additional field shifts will be included in follow up PRs so they can be reviewed and discussed individually. |

Helper Libraries
This folder contains helper libraries for Terraform plugins. A running joke is that this is "Terraform standard library" for plugins. The goal of the packages in this directory are to provide high-level helpers to make it easier to implement the various aspects of writing a plugin for Terraform.
