We recently removed the legacy way we used to track the SHA256 hashes of
individual provider executables as part of a plans.Plan, because these
days we want to track the checksums of entire provider packages rather
than just the executable.
In order to achieve that new goal, we can save a copy of the dependency
lock information inside the plan file. This follows our existing precedent
of using exactly the same serialization formats we'd normally use for
this information, and thus we can reuse the existing models and
serializers and be confident we won't lose any detail in the round-trip.
As of this commit there's not yet anything actually making use of this
mechanism. In a subsequent commit we'll teach the main callers that write
and read plan files to include and expect (respectively) dependency
information, verifying that the available providers still match by the
time we're applying the plan.
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.
