r/aws_applicationinsights_application: ACTIVE is a valid create target status

[jar-b]

Description

In some configurations with auto_config_enabled = true, intermittent errors are observed waiting for application creation.

│ Error: waiting for ApplicationInsights Application (example) create: unexpected state 'ACTIVE', wanted target 'NOT_CONFIGURED'. last error: %!s(<nil>)

The current assumption is that all applications enter a NOT_CONFIGURED lifecycle status upon initial creation (which is why this succeeds most of the time in minimal configurations such as our acceptance test), but in some instances can proceed into an ACTIVE status before the create waiter has polled for and observed a NOT_CONFIGURED status. The AWS documentation on the LifeCycle argument is limited, so while we cannot be certain about the expected values in the lifecycle flow, there is enough evidence from issue reports and manual testing to indicate ACTIVE should be considered a valid target state.
