### Description

**Is your feature request related to a problem?**

The target bootstrap subscription will have all providers installed by the azurerm provider if it is the very first Terraform run. This can cause a delay if there is a regional outage in Azure.

**Describe the solution you'd like**

Explicitly define the the required providers for the bootstrap subscription and only install those. Turn off the default behviour of the provider.
