Description

The generated Terraform should add references to other resources using a reference rather than a hard coded id.

For example, an action:

resource "auth0_action" "addmetadata" {
  code    = "..."
  # ...
}

Is included in a trigger with a hardcoded id reference:

resource "auth0_trigger_actions" "post_login" {
  trigger = "post-login"
  actions {
    display_name = "addMetadata"
    id           = "b71d0266-384c-0000-b3e2-b2c46b749b01"
  }
}

This pattern seems to be used throughout the generated code.

Expectation

It would be better if the resource shown above was generated with a reference to `auth0_action.addmetadata.id`:
```terraform
resource "auth0_trigger_actions" "post_login" {
  trigger = "post-login"
  actions {
    display_name = "addMetadata"
    id           = auth0_action.addmetadata.id
  }
}
