* command/console: return in case of errors before trying to unlock remote
state
The remote backend `Context` would exit without an active lock if there
was an error, while the local backend `Context` exited *with* a lock. This
caused a problem in `terraform console`, which would call unlock
regardless of error status.
This commit makes the local and remote backend consistently unlock the
state incase of error, and updates terraform console to check for errors
before trying to unlock the state.

When configuring providers, it is normally valid to refer to any value
which is known at apply time. This can include resource instance
attributes, variables, locals, and so on.
The import command has a simpler graph evaluation, which means that
many of these values are unknown. We previously prevented this from
happening by restricting provider configuration references to input
variables (#22862), but this was more restrictive than is necessary.
This commit changes how we verify provider configuration for import.
We no longer inspect the configuration references during graph building,
because this is too early to determine if these values will become known
or not.
Instead, when the provider is configured during evaluation, we
check if the configuration value is wholly known. If not, we fail with a
diagnostic error.
Includes a test case which verifies that providers can now be configured
using locals as well as vars, and an updated test case which verifies
that providers cannot be configured with references to resources.
element types
The error message when evaluateForEachExpression encounted an unknown
value of cty.DynamicPseudoType was not clear:
The given "for_each" argument value is unsuitable: "for_each" supports maps
and sets of strings, but you have provided a set containing type dynamic.
By moving the check for unknowns before the check for set element types,
the following error is returned instead:
"The "for_each" value depends on resource attributes that cannot be
determined until apply (...)"
Orphaned instances that are create_before_destroy will still be in the
state when their references are evaluated. We need to skip instances
that are planned to be destroyed altogether, as they can't be part of an
evaluation.
* command/init: return an error with invalid -backend-config files
The -backend-config flag expects a set of key-value pairs or a file
containing key-value pairs. If the file instead contains a full backend
configuration block, it was silently ignored. This commit adds a check
for blocks in the file and returns an error if they are encountered.
Fixes#24845
