// EncodeIntoBody replaces the contents of the given hclwrite Body with
// attributes and blocks derived from the given value, which must be a
// struct value or a pointer to a struct value with the struct tags defined
// in this package.
//
// This function can work only with fully-decoded data. It will ignore any
// fields tagged as "remain", any fields that decode attributes into either
// hcl.Attribute or hcl.Expression values, and any fields that decode blocks
// into hcl.Attributes values. This function does not have enough information
// to complete the decoding of these types.
//
// Any fields tagged as "label" are ignored by this function. Use EncodeAsBlock
// to produce a whole hclwrite.Block including block labels.
//
// As long as a suitable value is given to encode and the destination body
// is non-nil, this function will always complete. It will panic in case of
// any errors in the calling program, such as passing an inappropriate type
// or a nil body.
//
// The layout of the resulting HCL source is derived from the ordering of
// the struct fields, with blank lines around nested blocks of different types.
// Fields representing attributes should usually precede those representing
// blocks so that the attributes can group togather in the result. For more
// control, use the hclwrite API directly.
