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.

Previously we were using the experimental HCL 2 repository, but now we'll
shift over to the v2 import path within the main HCL repository as part of
actually releasing HCL 2.0 as stable.
This is a mechanical search/replace to the new import paths. It also
switches to the v2.0.0 release of HCL, which includes some new code that
Terraform didn't previously have but should not change any behavior that
matters for Terraform's purposes.
For the moment the experimental HCL2 repository is still an indirect
dependency via terraform-config-inspect, so it remains in our go.sum and
vendor directories for the moment. Because terraform-config-inspect uses
a much smaller subset of the HCL2 functionality, this does still manage
to prune the vendor directory a little. A subsequent release of
terraform-config-inspect should allow us to completely remove that old
repository in a future commit.
For compatibility with documented patterns from existing providers we are
now allowing (via a pre-processing step) any attribute whose type is a
list-of-object or set-of-object type to optionally be assigned using one
or more blocks whose type is the attribute name.
The pre-processing functionality was implemented in previous commits but
we were not correctly detecting references within these blocks that are,
from the perspective of the primary schema, invalid. Now we'll use an
alternative implementation of variable detection that is able to apply the
same schema rewriting technique we used to implement the transform and
thus can find all of the references as if they were already in their
final locations.
The hcldec package has no awareness of the dynamic block extension, so the
hcldec.Variables function misses any variables declared inside dynamic
blocks.
dynblock.VariablesHCLDec is a drop-in replacement for hcldec.Variables
that _is_ aware of dynamic blocks, returning all of the same variables
that hcldec would find naturally plus also any variables used inside
the dynamic block "for_each" and "labels" arguments and inside the
nested "content" block.
The "config" package is no longer used and will be removed as part
of the 0.12 release cleanup. Since configschema is part of the
"new world" of configuration modelling, it makes more sense for
it to live as a subdirectory of the newer "configs" package.
Due to how deeply the configuration types go into Terraform Core, there
isn't a great way to switch out to HCL2 gradually. As a consequence, this
huge commit gets us from the old state to a _compilable_ new state, but
does not yet attempt to fix any tests and has a number of known missing
parts and bugs. We will continue to iterate on this in forthcoming
commits, heading back towards passing tests and making Terraform
fully-functional again.
The three main goals here are:
- Use the configuration models from the "configs" package instead of the
older models in the "config" package, which is now deprecated and
preserved only to help us write our migration tool.
- Do expression inspection and evaluation using the functionality of the
new "lang" package, instead of the Interpolator type and related
functionality in the main "terraform" package.
- Represent addresses of various objects using types in the addrs package,
rather than hand-constructed strings. This is not critical to support
the above, but was a big help during the implementation of these other
points since it made it much more explicit what kind of address is
expected in each context.
Since our new packages are built to accommodate some future planned
features that are not yet implemented (e.g. the "for_each" argument on
resources, "count"/"for_each" on modules), and since there's still a fair
amount of functionality still using old-style APIs, there is a moderate
amount of shimming here to connect new assumptions with old, hopefully in
a way that makes it easier to find and eliminate these shims later.
I apologize in advance to the person who inevitably just found this huge
commit while spelunking through the commit history.
Whereas package "configs" deals with the static structure of the
configuration language, this new package "lang" deals with the dynamic
aspects such as expression evaluation.
So far this mainly consists of populating a hcl.EvalContext that contains
the values necessary to evaluate a block or an expression. There is also
special handling here for dynamic block generation using the HCL
"dynblock" extension, which is exposed in the public interface (rather
than hiding it as an implementation detail of EvalBlock) so that the
caller can then extract proper source locations for any result values
using the expanded body.
This also includes the beginnings of a replacement for the function table
handling that currently lives in the old "config" package, but most of
the functions are not yet ported and so this will expand in subsequent
commits.
