// Local implements additional behavior on a Backend that allows local
// operations in addition to remote operations.
//
// This enables more behaviors of Terraform that require more data such
// as `console`, `import`, `graph`. These require direct access to
// configurations, variables, and more. Not all backends may support this
// so we separate it out into its own optional interface.

	// needed to start running that operation.
	//
	// The operation doesn't need a Type set, but it needs various other
	// options set. This is a rather odd API that tries to treat all
	// operations as the same when they really aren't; see the local and remote
	// backend's implementations of this to understand what this actually
	// does, because this operation has no well-defined contract aside from
	// "whatever it already does".

// LocalRun represents the assortment of objects that we can collect or
// calculate from an Operation object, which we can then use for local
// operations.
//
// The operation methods on terraform.Context (Plan, Apply, Import, etc) each
// generate new artifacts which supersede parts of the LocalRun object that
// started the operation, so callers should be careful to use those subsequent
// artifacts instead of the fields of LocalRun where appropriate. The LocalRun
// data intentionally doesn't update as a result of calling methods on Context,
// in order to make data flow explicit.
//
// This type is a weird architectural wart resulting from the overly-general
// way our backend API models operations, whereby we behave as if all
// Terraform operations have the same inputs and outputs even though they
// are actually all rather different. The exact meaning of the fields in
// this type therefore vary depending on which OperationType was passed to
// Local.Context in order to create an object of this type.
