internal/getproviders: Allow basedir for local search to be symlink The SearchLocalDirectory function was intentionally written to only support symlinks at the leaves so that it wouldn't risk getting into an infinite loop traversing intermediate symlinks, but that rule was also applying to the base directory itself. It's pretty reasonable to put your local plugins in some location Terraform wouldn't normally search (e.g. because you want to get them from a shared filesystem mounted somewhere) and creating a symlink from one of the locations Terraform _does_ search is a convenient way to help Terraform find those without going all in on the explicit provider installation methods configuration that is intended for more complicated situations. To allow for that, here we make a special exception for the base directory, resolving that first before we do any directory walking. In order to help with debugging a situation where there are for some reason symlinks at intermediate levels inside the search tree, we also now emit a WARN log line in that case to be explicit that symlinks are not supported there and to hint to put the symlink at the top-level if you want to use symlinks at all. (The support for symlinks at the deepest level of search is not mentioned in this message because we allow it primarily for our own cache linking behavior.)
