compiler: cdktf tokens in resource names

[skorfmann]

I tried this:

bring cloud;
bring "@cdktf/provider-null" as nullish;

let provider = new nullish.provider.NullProvider();
let resource = new nullish.resource.Resource();
new cloud.Bucket() as "foo.${resource.getStringAttribute("id")}";

This is a made up example, the crucial part is to reference a cdktf token in the as definition.

This happened:

cat ./target/main.tfaws/main.tf.json | jq ".resource.aws_s3_bucket"

{
  "fooTfTokenTOKEN1": {
    "//": {
      "metadata": {
        "path": "root/Default/Default/foo.${null_resource.nullishresourceResource.id}/Default",
        "uniqueId": "fooTfTokenTOKEN1"
      }
    },
    "bucket_prefix": "foo-tftoken-token-1--c8d4ce24-",
    "force_destroy": false
  }
}

I expected this:

either resolve the token somehow or throw an error that this is not allowed. The latter was done in cdktf at some point, but don't recall the reasoning https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform-cdk/issues/1068

Is there a workaround?
