Martin Atkins ed121321c6 website: Revamp the "terraform state mv" page
My original motivation here was to add the previously-missing -dry-run
option to the list of options

However, while in the area I noticed that this command hasn't had a
documentation refresh for a while and so I took the opportunity to update
it to match with our current writing style and terminology used in other
parts of the documentation, and so I've rewritten prose elsewhere on the
page to hopefully give the same information in a way that fits in better
with concepts discussed elsewhere in the documentation, and also to try
to add some additional context to connect this information with what
we've described in other places.

This rewrite also drops the example of moving from one "state file" to
another, because that's a legacy usage pattern that isn't supported when
using remote backends, and we recommend most folks to use remote backends
so it's strange to show an example that therefore won't work for most
people. Rather than adding additional qualifiers to that example I chose
to just remove it altogether, because we've generally been working to
de-emphasize these legacy local backend command line options elsewhere in
the documentation.
