Add whatif #400

Closed tgauth closed 4 months ago

tgauth commented 5 months ago

PR Summary

add what-if flag to config set with synthetic test as a starting point, until resources can eventually implement what-if
if a resource does not implement its own pre-test, it returns the synthetic test output
if a resource implements its own pre-test then it errors, since the synthetic test output seems less valuable/accurate in this scenario? open to input here
delete with what-if is not a supported scenario

PR Context
