core: ParseResourceAddressForInstanceDiff function

This is a specialized thin wrapper around parseResourceAddressInternal
that can be used to obtain a ResourceAddress from the keys in
ModuleDiff.Resources.

This is not something we'd ideally expose, but since the internal address
format is already exposed in the ModuleDiff object this ends up being
necessary to process the ModuleDiff from other packages, e.g. for
display in the UI.
