Multiple aws_s3_bucket with the same bucket name does not generate an error

[jleclanche]

terraform 0.7.10

I had the following typo'd configuration:

resource "aws_s3_bucket" "example_org_bucket" {
	bucket = "example.org"
	website {
		redirect_all_requests_to = "https://example.net"
	}
}

resource "aws_s3_bucket" "www_example_org_bucket" {
	bucket = "example.org"
	website {
		redirect_all_requests_to = "https://example.net"
	}
}

Terraform did not complain (and even proceeded to do... something?), even though this makes no sense. This was a pretty simple typo, forgetting www. in the second bucket name.

Yeah, once I fixed the issue, the bucket got deleted even though there was a "real" instance of it, which caused the state to desync. Pretty nasty.
