Support var values other than strings

[nk9]

One of the main benefits of the new templatefile function over the old template_file is that the new one lets you pass any object you want as a var value. However, when I try to use this module with a map, it fails saying that:

The given value is not suitable for child module variable "cloudinit_parts"
│ defined at
│ .terraform/modules/project_module.cloud_init_config/variables.tf:2,1-27:
│ element 0: attribute "vars": element "SSH_KEYS": string required.

Here's the code I'm using:

module "cloud_init_config" {
  source = "ned1313/native/cloudinit"

  cloudinit_parts = [
    {
      filepath = "${path.module}/templates/bastion_cloud-init.yml.tpl"
      content-type = "text/cloud-config"
      vars = {
        SSH_KEYS = { for user in local.users: user => module.user_key_pairs[user].public_key_openssh }
      }
    }
  ]
}

Thanks Nick! I'll take a look.

]
