Mitchell Hashimoto d1b46e99bd Add terraform state list command
This introduces the terraform state list command to list the resources
within a state. This is the first of many state management commands to
come into 0.7.

This is the first command of many to come that is considered a
"plumbing" command within Terraform (see "plumbing vs porcelain":
http://git.661346.n2.nabble.com/what-are-plumbing-and-porcelain-td2190639.html).
As such, this PR also introduces a bunch of groundwork to support
plumbing commands.

The main changes:

- Main command output is changed to split "common" and "uncommon"
  commands.

- mitchellh/cli is updated to support nested subcommands, since
  terraform state list is a nested subcommand.

- terraform.StateFilter is introduced as a way in core to filter/search
  the state files. This is very basic currently but I expect to make it
  more advanced as time goes on.

- terraform state list command is introduced to list resources in a
  state. This can take a series of arguments to filter this down.

Known issues, or things that aren't done in this PR on purpose:

- Unit tests for terraform state list are on the way. Unit tests for the
  core changes are all there.

Usage: terraform state <subcommand> [options] [args]
This command has subcommands for advanced state management.
These subcommands can be used to slice and dice the Terraform state.
This is sometimes necessary in advanced cases. For your safety, all
state management commands that modify the state create a timestamped
backup of the state prior to making modifications.
The structure and output of the commands is specifically tailored to work
well with the common Unix utilities such as grep, awk, etc. We recommend
using those tools to perform more advanced state tasks.
