azurerm_storage_account - Enable migration of account_kind from Storage to StorageV2

[HappyTobi]

Hi all,

With the update it's now possible to change the account_kind from Storageto StorageV2 without dropping. (Migration is possible now)
For all other changes on the account_kind attribute a ForceNew will be triggered like before.

The migration was a valid path to change the account_kind without dropping it.
See also the comments in the azure-sdk-for-go

Here the output of terraform apply

Terraform will perform the following actions:

 # azurerm_storage_account.storage will be updated in-place
 ~ resource "azurerm_storage_account" "storage" {
      ~ account_kind                   = "Storage" -> "StorageV2"
...
Plan: 0 to add, 1 to change, 0 to destroy.

If you change the type back or to something else:

Terraform will perform the following actions:

  # azurerm_storage_account.storage must be replaced
-/+ resource "azurerm_storage_account" "storage" {
      ~ account_kind                     = "StorageV2" -> "Storage" # forces replacement
...
Plan: 1 to add, 0 to change, 1 to destroy.

Kind regards
Tobi

As this issue blocks our migration from storage account v1 to v2 using terraform, can you please kindly have a look at this PR and merge back?
Thanks, Claudia
