website: Fix references to the now-defunct "Interpolation" page 

This has been replaced with an "Expressions" page.

Also includes a number of changes to Markdown style to conform to our
usual conventions, applied automatically by my editor while making these
changes.

## Remote State ## Remote State
The `terraform console` command will read configured state even if it If [remote state](/docs/state/remote.html) is used by the current backend,

After configuring remote state, run a `terraform remote pull` command
to sync state locally. The `terraform console` command will use this
state for operations.
Because the console currently isn't able to modify state in any way,
this is a one way operation and you don't need to worry about remote
state conflicts in any way.

It is sometimes useful to embed files within the module that aren't Terraform configuration files, such as a script to provision a resource or a file to upload. It is sometimes useful to embed files within the module that aren't Terraform configuration files, such as a script to provision a resource or a file to upload.
In these cases, you can't use a relative path, since paths in Terraform are generally relative to the working directory from which Terraform was executed. Instead, you want to use a module-relative path. To do this, you should use the [path interpolated variables](/docs/configuration/interpolation.html). In these cases, you can't use a relative path, since paths in Terraform are generally relative to the working directory from which Terraform was executed. Instead, use a module-relative path, by interpolating `path.module`:
