Update terraform init default state name (default)

Lee Tickett requested to merge gitlab-community/gitlab:default-terraform-state-name into master

What does this MR do and why?

Update terraform init default state name (default)

Previously, the default state name in the UI was: <YOUR-STATE-NAME>.

Often times users forget to update this, and end up pushing a state to GitLab with the name <YOUR-STATE-NAME>.

Our base terraform template defines the default state name as: default.

https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/2bd49ec79a43666fa74c2ebd2d5daccd072330f8/lib/gitlab/ci/templates/Terraform/Base.gitlab-ci.yml#L16

This updates the UI to use the same default.

Changelog: changed
