Description

Steps to reproduce
1. Created a win10 VM with osDisk and encrypt the VM.
2. Took the snapshot of the osDisk after the encryption.
3. Deleted the original VM and original osDisk
4. Recreated the VM with the same name in the same RG from the encrypted snapshot.
5. Added a datadisk to the new VM and then tried to encrypt the data disk using the following.

```
WindowsVMDiskEncryptionConfiguration config =
new WindowsVMDiskEncryptionConfiguration(
keyVault.id(),
applicationId,
applicationSecretEncrypted)
.withVolumeType(DiskVolumeType.DATA);
DiskVolumeEncryptionMonitor monitor = vm.diskEncryption().enable(config);
```

Azure throws the following exception

> com.microsoft.azure.CloudException:
> Preparing machine for bitlocker is not a valid versioned Key Vault Secret URL. It should be in the format `https:///secrets//.:` Preparing machine for bitlocker is not a valid versioned Key Vault Secret URL. It should be in the format `https:///secrets//.`

But retrying it after few minutes once it fails works.

I guess it's trying to re-install the "AzureDiskEncryption" extension since this was deleted as part of the original VM delete. But not waiting for extension's provisioning state to succeed (which will set the status message correctly to the secret URL) and using an intermediate status message "Preparing machine for bitlocker" as the secret URL.
