Backport
This PR is auto-generated from #31408 to be assessed for backporting due to the inclusion of the label 1.2-backport.
WARNING automatic cherry-pick of commits failed. Commits will require human attention.
The below text is copied from the body of the original PR.
terraform initwill now tell users to tryterraform providers lockwhenever it cannot download a provider due to a checksum mismatch.The error message explaining a provider could not be downloaded due to a checksum mismatch now contains a link to the documentation explaining why this might have happened and how to work around it. We're holding off on suggesting anything too strongly in the actual error message because of the security implications.
We are using a redirect in the terraform-website added here so that if/when the documentation moves we can update the redirect and older versions of terraform will carry on pointing to the right place.
