Feature Request: Allow self-referencing in datadog_monitor

[hryamzik]

Terraform Version

Terraform v0.11.5
+ provider.datadog v1.0.3

Terraform Configuration Files

resource "datadog_monitor" "disk" {
  name                = "Disk"
  type                = "metric alert"
  query               = "avg(last_5m):avg:system.disk.in_use{device:/dev/ad1s1} > ${datadog_monitor.disk.thresholds.critical}"
  message             = "test"

  thresholds {
    warning           = 0.1
    critical          = 0.7
  }
}

Debug Output

Error: datadog_monitor.disk: datadog_monitor.disk: self reference not allowed: "datadog_monitor.disk.thresholds.critical"

Expected Behavior

Working without errors... The problem here is that critical must mach value in a queue so currently it has to be updated in two places for the same resource.

Steps to Reproduce

1. terraform init
2. terraform apply
