Ability to use -chdir=DIR with tf validate and tf fmt #106

Description

@lexicalunit

Describe the solution you'd like
I need to be able to set the dir via the global terraform argument -chdir=... before running validate:

repos:
- repo: https://github.com/gruntwork-io/pre-commit
  rev: v0.1.23
  hooks:
      - id: terraform-validate
        args: [-chdir=whatever]

However, what the above configuration actually does is attempt to pass -chidr=whatever to the validate subcommand. In other words, it executes this:

terraform validate -chdir=whatever

But that's an error because -chdir is not a valid argument for terraform validate.

What I need is a way to execute this:

terraform -chdir=whatever validate

Describe alternatives you've considered
I haven't found a way to set the working directory via some other means.
