website: Expand output values docs (#20790)
For 0.11 I just specified the naming rules; for 0.12, I added some info about
referencing values and tightened up the layout of the optional arguments.

This commit also syncs up descriptions of `depends_on`.

Nick Fagerlund d2abdc23ac website: Structural edit of configuration language docs
This commit is a wide-ranging set of edits to the pages under
/docs/configuration. Among other things, it

- Separates style conventions out into their own page.
- Separates type constraints and conversion info into their own page.
- Conflates similar complex types a little more freely, since the distinction is
  only relevant when restricting inputs for a reusable module or resource.
- Clarifies several concepts that confused me during edits.

Martin Atkins e41883d972 website: Revise the "Output Values" configuration docs section
This adopts a more guide-like writing style, similar to what prior commits
have done to some other subsections of this section.

In the process of writing this, I identified some unclear statements in
the "Resources" subsection, and so these are also revised here for
consistency with the output values documentation.

Martin Atkins 6fa6a0d110 website: revise the "Resources" configuration docs section
This is now the leading subsection of the Configuration section of the
docs, and so this rewrite intends to make it more "guide-like" and as
accessible as possible to those who are not yet familiar with other
Terraform concepts.

This rewrite also attempts to introduce some consistency into our
vocabulary, which should eventually be reflected throughout our
documentation. In particular:

- "Resource" refers to the block the user writes in configuration, while
  "Resource _Type_" refers to what the provider defines. We previously
  used "resource" for both of these interchangeably.

- "Resource" is no longer used to refer to what gets created and managed
  in remote APIs as a result of a resource block in configuration. Lacking
  a good distinct name for these, this guide uses the word "object",
  qualifying it as "infrastructure object" or "remote object" where
  necessary to retain clarity. This distinction is important to enable
  a clear description of resource lifecycle.

- "Argument" refers to an element (attribute or block) within a resource
  block. This terminology was already being used in some places, so we
  embrace it here as a way to distinguish from "attribute", which is
  what a resource _exports_ for use in expressions.

- Since interpolation is no longer needed to use expressions in the
  language, the word "expression" is used to describe the definition of
  a value that might involve some computation. Where necessary, this is
  used with a modifier "arbitrary expression" to contrast with situations
  where the set of allowed expression constructs is constrained.

James Bardin ff8d02cd25 remove old warning care create_before_destroy
Create-before-destroy dependencies are automatically ordered correctly
by terraform. Remove the old notice about requiring all dependencies to
have the same setting for create_before_destroy.
