Remote state backends to manage Terraform state

# stage/frontend-app/main.tf
terraform {
  backend "s3" {
    bucket         = "my-terraform-state"
    key            = "stage/frontend-app/terraform.tfstate"
    region         = "us-east-1"
    encrypt        = true
    dynamodb_table = "my-lock-table"
  }
}

GitLab 13.0 (2020) can be used as an HTTP backend for Terraform.
