Bump github.com/hashicorp/hcl/v2 from 2.11.1 to 2.16.0

[dependabot]

Bumps github.com/hashicorp/hcl/v2 from 2.11.1 to 2.16.0.

Release notes

Sourced from github.com/hashicorp/hcl/v2's releases.

v2.16.0

Enhancements

• ext/typeexpr: Modify the Defaults functionality to implement additional flexibility. HCL will now upcast lists and sets into tuples, and maps into objects, when applying default values if the applied defaults cause the elements within a target collection to have differing types. Previously, this would have resulted in a panic, now HCL will return a modified overall type. (hashicorp/hcl#574)

  Users should return to the advice provided by v2.14.0, and apply the go-cty convert functionality after setting defaults on a given cty.Value, rather than before.

• hclfmt: Avoid rewriting unchanged files. (hashicorp/hcl#576)

• hclsyntax: Simplify the AST for certain string expressions. (hashicorp/hcl#584)

Bugs Fixed

• hclwrite: Fix data race in formatSpaces. (hashicorp/hcl#511)

v2.15.0

Bugs Fixed

• ext/typeexpr: Skip null objects when applying defaults. This prevents crashes when null objects are creating inside collections, and stops incomplete objects being created with only optional attributes set. (#567)
• ext/typeexpr: Ensure default values do not have optional metadata attached. This prevents crashes when default values are inserted into concrete go-cty values that have also been stripped of their optional metadata. (#568)

Enhancements

• ext/typeexpr: With the go-cty upstream depenendency updated to v1.12.0, the Defaults struct and associated functions can apply additional and more flexible 'unsafe' conversions (examples include tuples into collections such as lists and sets, and additional safety around null and dynamic values). (#564)
• ext/typeexpr: With the go-cty upstream depenendency updated to v1.12.0, users should now apply the go-cty convert functionality before setting defaults on a given cty.Value, rather than after, if they require a specific cty.Type. (#564)

v2.14.1

Bugs Fixed

• ext/typeexpr: Type convert defaults for optional object attributes when applying them. This prevents crashes in certain cases when the objects in question are part of a collection. (#555)

v2.14.0

Enhancements

• ext/typeexpr: Added support for optional object attributes to TypeConstraint. Attributes can be wrapped in the special optional(…) modifier, allowing the attribute to be omitted while still meeting the type constraint. For more information, cty's documentation on conversion between object types. (#549)
• ext/typeexpr: New function: TypeConstraintWithDefaults. In this mode, the optional(…) modifier accepts a second argument which can be used as the default value for omitted object attributes. The function returns both a cty.Type and associated Defaults, the latter of which has an Apply method to apply defaults to a given value. (#549)

v2.12.0

Enhancements

• hclsyntax: Evaluation of conditional expressions will now produce more precise error messages about inconsistencies between the types of the true and false result expressions, particularly in cases where both are of the same structural type kind but differ in their nested elements. (#530)
• hclsyntax: The lexer will no longer allocate a small object on the heap for each token. Instead, in that situation it will allocate only when needed to return a diagnostic message with source location information. (#490)
• hclwrite: New functions TokensForTuple, TokensForObject, and TokensForFunctionCall allow for more easily constructing the three constructs which are supported for static analysis and which HCL-based languages typically use in contexts where an expression is used only for its syntax, and not evaluated to produce a real value. For example, these new functions together are sufficient to construct all valid type constraint expressions from the Type Expressions Extension, which is the basis of variable type constraints in the Terraform language at the time of writing. (#502)
• json: New functions IsJSONExpression and IsJSONBody to determine if a given expression or body was created by the JSON syntax parser. In normal situations it's better not to worry about what syntax a particular expression/body originated in, but this can be useful in some trickier cases where an application needs to shim for backwards-compatibility or for static analysis that needs to have special handling of the JSON syntax's embedded expression/template conventions. (#524)

Bugs Fixed

• gohcl: Fix docs about supported types for blocks. (#507)

v2.13.0 (June 22, 2022)

Enhancements

• hcl: hcl.Diagnostic now has an additional field Extra which is intended for carrying arbitrary supporting data ("extra information") related to the diagnostic message, intended to allow diagnostic renderers to optionally tailor the presentation of messages for particular situations. (#539)
• hclsyntax: When an error occurs during a function call, the returned diagnostics will include extra information (as described in the previous point) about which function was being called and, if the message is about an error returned by the function itself, that raw error value without any post-processing. (#539)

Bugs Fixed

• hclwrite: Fixed a potential data race for any situation where hclwrite.Format runs concurrently with itself. (#534)
