This PR is a spike at introducing in-place updates of AWS RDS instances, without destroying and re-creating the entire instance, currently only supporting

apply_immediately = true
will introduce downtime immediately,false
will apply the changes in the next maintenance window. The caveat there is that the local state won't be updated until after the change, soterraform plan
