Description
**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
With terraform, if I change a storage account to have HSN enabled (a read only property), and apply, terraform will destroy the storage account and recreate it with HSN enabled, with bicep I have to do the same manually. Given how slow Bicep is compared to terraform already this is incredibly frustrating as I have to apply a couple of times at least for this to work.
**Describe the solution you'd like**
It would be great if Bicep could do this recreation in one run, i.e. destroy the storage account and recreate it.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing the described Bicep deployment for an Azure storage account, changing HSN from disabled to enabled and observing the required apply sequence. Compare the behavior with Terraform's recreation flow; done means Bicep destroys and recreates the resource with the read-only property in one run.
