Description

So, when trying to import existing terraform namespaces, and it seems a lot of the resource blocks don't allow importing or setting the state variables.

resource "pulsar_namespace" "test" {
  ....
  namespace = "test"
  dispatch_rate {
    dispatch_msg_throttling_rate  = 50
    rate_period_seconds           = 50
    dispatch_byte_throttling_rate = 2048
  }
}

terraform import for pulsar_namespace produces spurious dispatch_rate plan drift because the provider's Read function only populates optional blocks when they already exist in state - seem to be a known provider limitation with no current fix; workaround is to verify values with pulsar-admin before applying, pls look into unconditional import reads.
