tflint provides a plugin system to introduce provider specific linting rules. ex: https://github.com/terraform-linters/tflint-ruleset-aws.
These plugins are downloaded by defining them on the tflint config and running
tflint --initstep.Similar to how terraform plugins are downloaded with
mirrorcommand, the tflint's--initflag allows defining a plugin directory viaTFLINT_PLUGIN_DIRenv variable.This PR extends the functionality of the tflint toolchain to exetute tflint with
--initflag to pre-cache the plugins on a predefined directory.wrapper.shscripts sets theTFLINT_PLUGIN_DIRto use the pre-cached plugins duing lint runs.
