[Feature] Prevent instance destroy on machine_type change

[TraGicCode]

Terraform Version

v0.10.2

Plugin Version

google (0.1.3)

Affected Resource(s)

Please list the resources as a list, for example:

• google_compute_instance

When changing the machine_type of an already created instance terraform thinks it should recreate the instance when a modified should be done. Also google requires the machine to be stopped before you can change the type. Not sure how this affects things.

You are listing Oracle Public Cloud resources as the affected resources but mentions google in your comment. Did you mean google_compute_instance in the affected resources section?

[TraGicCode]

Yes I did sorry I didn't replace that from the pr template

Looks like this is similar to hashicorp/terraform#11998. I don't see why we couldn't apply the similar logic/workflow here. I'll open a quick PR.

Duplicate. Closing in favor of #728 which contains more details and implementation ideas.
