The source argument in a module block tells Terraform where to find the source code for the desired child module.
source = "terraform-aws-modules/ec2-instance/aws"
Terraform uses this during the module installation step of terraform init
to download the source code to a directory on local disk so that it can be used by other Terraform commands.
