We don't typically just broadly run automatic rewriting tools like "go fix"
across our codebase because that tends to cause annoying and unnecessary
merge conflicts when we're backporting to earlier release branches.
But all of the files in this commit were changed in some non-trivial way
already during the OpenTofu v1.11 development period anyway, and so the
likelyhood we'd be able to successfully backport from them is reduced and
therefore this seems like a good opportunity to do some focused
modernization using "go fix".
My rules for what to include or not are admittedly quite "vibes-based", but
the general idea was:
- Focusing on files under the "command" directory only, because that's
already been an area of intentional refactoring during this development
period.
- If the existing diff in a file is already significantly larger than
the changes the fixer proposed to make, or if the fixer is proposing
to change a line that was already changed in this development period.
- More willing to include "_test.go" files than non-test files, even if
they hadn't changed as much already, just because backports from test
files for bug fixes tend to be entirely new test cases more than they
are modifications to existing test cases, and so the risk of conflicts
is lower there.
