data source "azurerm_express_route_circuit_peering" is really needed.

When connecting ExpressRoute Gateway and ExpressRoute Circuit, express_route_circuit_peering_id is required.
We can't create "azurerm_express_route_circuit_peering" via terraform because some ExpressRoute provider (mainly L3 provider) create peering settings from provider side. (If create peerings via terraform, it will be failed because of duplicate.)
