Peter McAtominey 507efcb180 state/azure: support passing of lease ID when writing storage blob (#10115)
Also fixed tests failing auth caused by getStorageAccountAccessKey returning the
key name rather than the value

Terraform can store the state remotely, making it easier to version and work with in a team.
---
# azure
Stores the state as a given key in a given bucket on [Microsoft Azure Storage](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/storage-introduction/).
-> **Note:** Passing credentials directly via config options will
make them included in cleartext inside the persisted state.
Access key should, ideally, be passed using the environment variable
`ARM_ACCESS_KEY` to follow this convention.
## Example Usage
```
terraform remote config \
-backend=azure \
-backend-config="storage_account_name=terraform123abc" \
-backend-config="container_name=terraform-state" \
-backend-config="key=prod.terraform.tfstate"
```
## Example Referencing
```hcl
# setup remote state data source
data "terraform_remote_state" "foo" {
backend = "azure"
config {
storage_account_name = "terraform123abc"
container_name = "terraform-state"
key = "prod.terraform.tfstate"
}
}
```
## Configuration variables
The following configuration options are supported:
* `storage_account_name` - (Required) The name of the storage account
* `container_name` - (Required) The name of the container to use within the storage account
* `key` - (Required) The key where to place/look for state file inside the container
* `access_key` / `ARM_ACCESS_KEY` - (Required) Storage account access key
* `lease_id` / `ARM_LEASE_ID` - (Optional) If set, will be used when writing to storage blob.
