Editing Terraform S3 backend

[[Terraform]] [[S3]] backend. 
* https://www.terraform.io/docs/language/settings/backends/s3.html

== Basic S3 example in [[provider.tf]] ==
 terraform {
   backend "s3" {
     [[bucket]] = "your-terraform-states"
     [[Terraform S3 backend|key]]<ref>https://www.terraform.io/docs/language/settings/backends/s3.html#key</ref>    = "[[terraform.tfstate]]"
     [[profile]] = "your-profile"
   }
 }

== Example including DynamoDB table ==
 terraform {
   backend "s3" {
     [[bucket]] = "your-terraform-states"
     [[key]]<ref>https://www.terraform.io/docs/language/settings/backends/s3.html#key</ref>    = "[[terraform.tfstate]]"
     region = "[[us-west-2]]"
     [[dynamodb_table]] = "your-terraform-states"
     [[profile]] = "your-profile"
     [[workspace_key_prefix]] = "your-workspace"
   }
 }

* <code>[[profile]]</code>: https://www.terraform.io/docs/language/settings/backends/s3.html#profile
* <code>key</code>: path to the [[state file]] inside the [[S3 Bucket]]. https://www.terraform.io/docs/language/settings/backends/s3.html#key
