Previously the state migration process was using the fallback strict error check when migrating to or from a Terraform Cloud workspace. This resulted in an error when running init if the local and remote Terraform versions did not exactly match. This was excessively strict. When migrating from a remote Terraform Cloud workspace to local state, there is no need for a version check at all, as we cannot break the Terraform Cloud workspace. When migrating to Terraform Cloud, we should use the more forgiving check, rather than the strict equality. This commit fixes both of these cases accordingly, and allows migrating state to and from Terraform Cloud remote workspaces without errors.
