Instance view status on LinuxVirtualMachine

[vfarcic]

What problem are you facing?

LinuxVirtualMachine does not use VM status to deduce whether the machine is running or not so it does not react in case of a VM being stopped (does not start it).

How could Official Azure Provider help solve your problem?

Integrate with https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/compute/virtual-machines/instance-view?view=rest-compute-2023-10-02&tabs=HTTP#instanceviewstatus to monitor VM status and react if it differs from the status defined in MRs.

The response will include a statuses array that contains the current status of the VM. Look for a status with "code": "PowerState/running" to confirm that the VM is running

I also ran into this while testing the provider capabilities before adoption.
It would be great to see this implemented.
