The upstream terraform_fmt hook only matches .tf, .tofu, and .tfvars files. Override the files pattern to also match .tftest.hcl so that Terraform test files are formatted on commit, matching the CI check which runs `terraform fmt -check -recursive` on all file types.

Summary
filespattern on theterraform_fmtpre-commit hook to also match.tftest.hclfilesContext
The upstream
terraform_fmthook fromantonbabenko/pre-commit-terraformonly matches.tf,.tofu, and.tfvarsfiles. This means.tftest.hclfiles are not formatted by the pre-commit hook, but CI runsterraform fmt -check -recursivewhich catches all Terraform file types.This mismatch caused format check failures on #870 and #871 — the pre-commit hook passed locally but CI failed on unformatted test files.
Test plan
.tftest.hclfile with bad formatting and verify the pre-commit hook catches it
