// an arbitrary object of named values and attempts to render the referenced
// file as a template using HCL template syntax.

// The template itself may recursively call other functions so a callback
// must be provided to get access to those functions. The template cannot,
// however, access any variables defined in the scope: it is restricted only to
// those variables provided in the second function argument.
//
// As a special exception, a referenced template file may not recursively call
// the templatefile function, since that would risk the same file being
// included into itself indefinitely.
