google_compute_subnetwork resource - support an expansion of CIDR range

[Dnefedkin]

Terraform Version

0.8.5

Affected Resource(s)

• google_compute_subnetwork

Changing ip_cidr_range argument of google_compute_subnetwork resource leads to recreation of the subnetwork object, the update method is not implemented.

GCE API has a method Subnetworks: expandIpCidrRange [1] that allows to modify the existing subnetwork and change a CIDR range in case if a new CIDR range is a superset of the range previously defined before the update.

The proposal is to modify google_compute_subnetwork resource by adding code allowing to expand a CIDR range. It's not clear to me how resource should behave in a new CIDR range is not a superset of an old one.
