hclField cannot handle object or nested object

[xingao267]

For example

In Terraform Engine config:

notification_config = {
   pubsub_topic = "projects/example-prod-data/topics/example-topic"
}

with {{hclField . "notification_config" -}}

will be turned to

notification_config = pubsub_topic = "projects/example-prod-data/topics/example-topic"

and with more complicated struct, for example

stream_configs = [{
  bigquery_destination = {
    dataset_uri = "bq://example-prod-data.example_dataset_id"
    schema_config = {
      recursive_structure_depth = 3
    }
  }
}]

with with {{hclField . "stream_configs" -}}

will be turned to

stream_configs = [
  {
    bigquery_destination {
      dataset_uri = "bq://example-prod-data.example_dataset_id"

      schema_config {
        recursive_structure_depth = 3
      }
    }
  },
]

It would be very useful to make hclField more powerful to handle complex struct so the effort of support a new field in Terraform resource or module can be largely reduced, i.e. just adding {{hclField . "new_field" -}} in the template and allow that field as an object in the schema.

We could add support ourselves. Right now it just calls the lib https://github.com/rodaine/hclencoder so there isn't much we can do, apart from adding support there.
