Paul Hinze e67fc0fe9b command: Change module-depth default to -1
This means that terraform commands like `plan`, `apply`, `show`, and
`graph` will expand all modules by default.

While modules-as-black-boxes is still very true in the conceptual design
of modules, feedback on this behavior has consistently suggested that
users would prefer to see more verbose output by default.

The `-module-depth` flag and env var are retained to allow output to be
optionally limited / summarized by these commands.

# Command: show
The `terraform show` command is used to provide human-readable output
from a state or plan file. This can be used to inspect a plan to ensure
that the planned operations are expected, or to inspect the current state
as Terraform sees it.
## Usage
Usage: `terraform show [options] [path]`
You must may `show` with a path to either a Terraform state file or plan
file. If no path is specified, the current state will be shown.
The command-line flags are all optional. The list of available flags are:
* `-module-depth=n` - Specifies the depth of modules to show in the output.
By default this is -1, which will expand all.
* `-no-color` - Disables output with coloring
