Terraform Version Packaging

[evfurman]

I posted this question in gitter but am following up here...

Is there a way to force Chalice to package for a certain version of terraform? The default behavior appears to package for Terraform 0.11.x as it formats variables like ${variable} in the generated json file.

chalice package --stage dev --pkg-format terraform /tmp/pkg/

Additionally, as a feature request, it would be great to document best practices around Terraform upgrades as they relate to Chalice.

After seeing the recent issues people were running into with the latest versions of terraform (#1717, #1869), I'm considering having some config option to generate a tf template that only works with 1.x. now that they have compatibility guarantees, and then in chalice v2 only support terraform 1.x.
