feat(ops/terraform): allow specifying an entrypoint for the attrset r/5871

This adds an additional parameter `entrypoint`, pointing to a .nix file
(or a directory containing a `default.nix` file) that's providing the
attribute path asked for.

If not set / kept at the default (empty string), it falls back to the
root dir of the repository as before.
