joeduffy 7b5f9df917 Make updates work in the face of output properties
This change fixes up a few things so that updates correctly deal
with output properties.  This involves a few things:

    1) All outputs stored on the pre snapshot need to get propagated
       to the post snapshot during planning at various points.  This
       ensures that the diffing logic doesn't need to be special cased
       everywhere, including both the Lumi and the provider sides.

    2) Names are changed to "input" properties (using a new `lumi` tag
       option, `in`).  These are properties that providers are expected
       to know nothing about, which we must treat with care during diffs.

    3) We read back properties, via Get, after doing an Update just like
       we do after performing a Create.  This ensures that if an update
       has a cascading impact on other properties, it will be detected.

    4) Inspecting a change, prior to updating, must be done using the
       computed property set instead of the real one.  This is to avoid
       mutating the resource objects ahead of actually applying a plan,
       which would be wrong and misleading.

// Provider presents a simple interface for orchestrating resource create, reead, update, and delete operations. Each
// provider understands how to handle all of the resource types within a single package.
//
// This interface hides some of the messiness of the underlying machinery, since providers are behind an RPC boundary.
//
// It is important to note that provider operations are not transactional. (Some providers might decide to offer
// transactional semantics, but such a provider is a rare treat.) As a result, failures in the operations below can
// range from benign to catastrophic (possibly leaving behind a corrupt resource). It is up to the provider to make a
// best effort to ensure catastrophies do not occur. The errors returned from mutating operations indicate both the
// underlying error condition in addition to a bit indicating whether the operation was successfully rolled back.
