// a Terraform configuration.

	// Validate is called once at the beginning with the raw
	// configuration (no interpolation done) and can return a list of warnings
	// and/or errors.
	//
	// This is called once per resource.
	//
	// This should not assume any of the values in the resource configuration
	// are valid since it is possible they have to be interpolated still.
	// The primary use case of this call is to check that the required keys
	// are set and that the general structure is correct.

	// Apply runs the provisioner on a specific resource and returns the new
	// resource state along with an error. Instead of a diff, the ResourceConfig
	// is provided since provisioners only run after a resource has been
	// newly created.

	// Stop is called when the provisioner should halt any in-flight actions.
	//
	// This can be used to make a nicer Ctrl-C experience for Terraform.
	// Even if this isn't implemented to do anything (just returns nil),
	// Terraform will still cleanly stop after the currently executing
	// graph node is complete. However, this API can be used to make more
	// efficient halts.
	//
	// Stop doesn't have to and shouldn't block waiting for in-flight actions
	// to complete. It should take any action it wants and return immediately
	// acknowledging it has received the stop request. Terraform core will
	// automatically not make any further API calls to the provider soon
	// after Stop is called (technically exactly once the currently executing
	// graph nodes are complete).
	//
	// The error returned, if non-nil, is assumed to mean that signaling the
	// stop somehow failed and that the user should expect potentially waiting
	// a longer period of time.
