This early validation uses interpolation of a placeholder value to achieve
some "best effort" validation of the validity of the count attribute.
Since HCL2-specified resources can't be interpolated using the main
interpolator, here we branch and use the HCL2 API to do a
largely-equivalent (though slightly less accurate) check.
In the long run we don't really need this extra check at all, since the
validation walk does a more accurate version of the same thing. However,
we're preserving this for now in the interests of minimizing the amount
of change for the main codepath during our experiment.
This loader uses the HCL2 parser and decoder to process a config file,
and then transforms the result into the same shape as would be produced
by the HCL config loader.
To avoid making changes to the existing config structures (which are
depended on across much of the codebase) we first decode into a set of
HCL2-tailored structs and then process them into the public-facing structs
that a loader is expected to return. This is a compromise to keep the
config package API broadly unchanged for now. Once we're ready to remove
the old HCL loader (which implies that we're ready to support HCL2
natively elsewhere in the codebase) we will be able to simplify this
quite considerably.
Due to some mismatches of abstraction between HCL/HIL and HCL2, some
shimming is required to get the required result.
