Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently there is a lot of stir around Terraform and HashiCorp. Having a dedicated mixin for OpenTofu or adapting the Terraform mixin to also support OpenTofu could be valuable.

Describe the solution you'd like
A mixin that supports OpenTofu

Describe alternatives you've considered
Having users manually build an invocation image supporting OpenTofu, but that would seem weird based on the fact the Porter already have a Terraform mixin, so why not also support OpenTofu?

At this moment if you need to have a support of Terraform as well as OpenTofu (and Terragrunt :) ) in one tool you can use https://github.com/tofuutils/tenv which my team wrote some months ago. A lot of users switched to that tool to unify version management in the world of Terraform.

You're welcome to open any issues or contribute to tenv.

I know it's not slated for v1.1.0, but I'd be interested in giving this a look, I haven't done anything relating to mixins yet :)

@dgannon991 You are more than welcome to take a look at this one. It hasn't been discussed if a OpenTofu mixin is something that will be maintained in the Porter organization yet. Until that has been discussed development have to be done in a separate Github organization, most likely your own.
