James Bardin f0e51aca1a test a nil computed value within an expression
Comparing a nil-computed value was returning unknown, preventing the
data source from being evaluated.

James Nugent fb150ef72f provider/test: Add test of data source count.index
This adds a unit test to the test provider that verifies count.index
behaves correctly. Although not ideal this is hard to implement as a
context test without changing around the (non helper/schema)
implementation of the x_data_source.

core: rerun resource validation before plan and apply
In #7170 we found two scenarios where the type checking done during the
`context.Validate()` graph walk was circumvented, and the subsequent
assumption of type safety in the provider's `Diff()` implementation
caused panics.

Both scenarios have to do with interpolations that reference Computed
values. The sentinel we use to indicate that a value is Computed does
not carry any type information with it yet.

That means that an incorrect reference to a list or a map in a string
attribute can "sneak through" validation only to crop up...

 1. ...during Plan for Data Source References
 2. ...during Apply for Resource references

In order to address this, we:

 * add high-level tests for each of these two scenarios in `provider/test`
 * add context-level tests for the same two scenarios in `terraform`
   (these tests proved _really_ tricky to write!)
 * place an `EvalValidateResource` just before `EvalDiff` and `EvalApply` to
   catch these errors
 * add some plumbing to `Plan()` and `Apply()` to return validation
   errors, which were previously only generated during `Validate()`
 * wrap unit-tests around `EvalValidateResource`
 * add an `IgnoreWarnings` option to `EvalValidateResource` to prevent
   active warnings from halting execution on the second-pass validation

Eventually, we might be able to attach type information to Computed
values, which would allow for these errors to be caught earlier. For
now, this solution keeps us safe from panics and raises the proper
errors to the user.

Fixes #7170
