Docs for HCL2 (#9322)
Add more detailed HCL2 docs, mostly lifted from Packer with tweaks for Nomad.

The function docs are basically verbatim taken from Packer with basic string substitutions. I commented out some for_each details as the examples are mostly driven towards Packer resources. I'll iterate on those with better Nomad examples.

# Built-in Functions
`@include 'beta-nomad1.0-note.mdx'`
The HCL language includes a number of built-in functions that you can
call from within expressions to transform and combine values. The general
syntax for function calls is a function name followed by comma-separated
arguments in parentheses:
```hcl
max(5, 12, 9)
```
The HCL language does not support user-defined functions, and so only
the functions built in to the language are available for use. The navigation
for this section includes a list of all of the available built-in functions.
