Martin Atkins b975ada8db states: New package with modern models for Terraform state
Our previous state models in the "terraform" package had a few limitations
that are addressed here:

- Instance attributes were stored as map[string]string with dot-separated
  keys representing traversals through a data structure. Now that we have
  a full type system, it's preferable to store it as a real data
  structure.

- The existing state structures skipped over the "resource" concept and
  went straight to resource instance, requiring heuristics to decide
  whether a particular resource should appear as a single object or as
  a list of objects when used in configuration expressions.

- Related to the previous point, the state models also used incorrect
  terminology where "ResourceState" was really a resource instance state
  and "InstanceState" was really the state of a particular remote object
  associated with an instance. These new models use the correct names for
  each of these, introducing the idea of a "ResourceInstanceObject" as
  the local record of a remote object associated with an instance.

This is a first pass at fleshing out a new model for state. Undoubtedly
there will be further iterations of this as we work on integrating these
new models into the "terraform" package.

These new model types no longer serve double-duty as a description of the
JSON state file format, since they are for in-memory use only. A
subsequent commit will introduce a separate package that deals with
persisting state to files and reloading those files later.
