Consider removal of all files copied from ConfigDirectory between sequential test steps

[bendbennett]

terraform-plugin-testing version

v1.4.0

Use cases

The changes in Add Option to use Terraform Configuration in TestStep allow for specifying a ConfigDirectory which contains Terraform configuration. The contents of the specified directory are copied into the working directory when a test step is executed. Once the test step has been executed, any files with .tf or .json extensions are removed. However, if there are files within the ConfigDirectory that have file extensions other than .tf and .json then these files will persist between test steps.

Attempted solutions

N/A

Proposal

We should be preserving the files necessary between steps in the working directory such as the terraform.tfstate, but removing the rest of the working directory files/directories.
