Pulumi is adding first-class support for HCL, so this softens content that
framed HCL and "configuration languages" as inferior, repositioning
general-purpose languages as a flexible choice rather than a fundamentally
superior one.
- Reframes flagship pages (what-is-pulumi, superintelligence-infrastructure,
the OpenTofu ad) around breadth of language choice, including native HCL.
- Surgically neutralizes evaluative clauses across docs comparisons, what-is
explainers, marketing/event/gads pages, and marketing layouts.
- Adds an {{% hcl-note %}} shortcode and applies it to 15 dated blog posts that
disparage HCL, rather than rewriting bylined history.
Scope notes: factual critiques of the Terraform *platform* (BUSL relicense,
lock-in) are preserved; license facts are kept accurate (Pulumi Apache 2.0 is
not equated with OpenTofu's MPL 2.0); customer quotes are left untouched.

A lot of out content frames HCL and "configuration languages" as less desirable than programming languages. This PR softens that rhetoric and repositions general-purpose languages as a flexible choice rather than categorically superior, while noting that HCL is now a supported peer language.
