Follow-up to #6566 (the reproducer tests, now merged).

Fixes the whole-block recreate misclassification without touching structdiff, so configsync and the rest of the plan pipeline are unaffected.

structdiff keeps emitting one change at the block level when a nested struct is nil on one side — the right granularity for a whole add/remove. The fix is a single, tightly-scoped change:

  • Bidirectional recreate matching (findRecreateRule / matchesFieldRuleBidirectional): a recreate rule on foo.bar now also matches a change recorded at foo, so adding/removing a whole block that contains an immutable field (ingestion_definition.connection_name) is classified recreate instead of update. This is applied only to recreate_on_changes; findMatchingRule (ignore_remote/ignore_local, backend_default, normalize) stays descendant-only, because a whole block that merely contains an ignored/defaulted leaf is still a real change and must not be skipped.

Test flips: pipelines/recreate-{add,remove}-whole-blockrecreate on both engines.

Keep structdiff emitting whole-block changes: when a nested struct is nil on one
side it is one change at the block level, which is the right granularity for a
whole add/remove. Fix the two bundle-plan consumers that need to relate a rule to
such a change:

- findMatchingRule is now bidirectional (matchesFieldRule): a rule on foo.bar
  matches a change at foo, so adding/removing a whole block that contains an
  immutable field recreates instead of updating.
- prepareChanges keeps one level per subtree: when one diff descended to a leaf
  while the other stayed at the block, the block-level entry wins and inner-field
  entries are dropped.

update_mask is left alone, so the postgres default_endpoint_settings message-mask
case stays a documented bug. structdiff and configsync are unchanged, so there is
no empty-parent regression.

Applying bidirectional matching through the shared findMatchingRule and deduping
in prepareChanges both leaked into config-remote-sync (which consumes the plan's
ChangeDesc): ignore_remote rules wrongly skipped whole blocks (dropping a
job_clusters rename), and the dedup dropped fine-grained ops the split logic
needs (leaving a num_workers remnant).

So bidirectional matching is now recreate-only (findRecreateRule); ignore/skip
rules stay descendant-only, and prepareChanges no longer dedups. The PR now only
fixes the recreate misclassification (pipelines/recreate-{add,remove}-whole-block).
The plan "one level" overlap and update_mask remain documented follow-ups.

It is a generic bidirectional matcher, not recreate-specific; recreate is just
its only current caller.

…lan fix

#6589 made the direct engine match recreate rules bidirectionally, so a change to a nested field inside
a block covered by a recreate rule is now caught. Seven ingestion_definition.* transitions on pipelines
move OK -> OK_RECREATE as a result -- connector_type, the data_staging_options catalog/schema, and
several table_configuration leaves. Both are passing verdicts; this records the improved classification.

#6589)

Follow-up to #6566 (the reproducer tests, now merged).

Fixes the whole-block **recreate misclassification** without touching
structdiff, so configsync and the rest of the plan pipeline are
unaffected.

structdiff keeps emitting one change at the block level when a nested
struct is nil on one side — the right granularity for a whole
add/remove. The fix is a single, tightly-scoped change:

- **Bidirectional recreate matching** (`findRecreateRule` /
`matchesFieldRuleBidirectional`): a recreate rule on `foo.bar` now also
matches a change recorded at `foo`, so adding/removing a whole block
that contains an immutable field
(`ingestion_definition.connection_name`) is classified `recreate`
instead of `update`. This is applied **only** to `recreate_on_changes`;
`findMatchingRule` (ignore_remote/ignore_local, backend_default,
normalize) stays descendant-only, because a whole block that merely
*contains* an ignored/defaulted leaf is still a real change and must not
be skipped.

Test flips: `pipelines/recreate-{add,remove}-whole-block` → `recreate`
on both engines.

## Release v1.17.0

### Notable Changes

 * Bump the direct deployment state version to 3. Clients older than v1.8.0 will reject bundles deployed with this release. ([#6713](#6713))

### CLI

 * Add an `INVALID_REFRESH_TOKEN` error code to `databricks auth token --output json` failures. ([#6684](#6684))
 * Add experimental `databricks auth docker configure` to configure Docker credential helper access for Databricks Artifact Registry. ([#6700](#6700))
 * Add experimental `databricks auth docker token` to generate Docker credentials for Databricks Artifact Registry. ([#6699](#6699))
 * `databricks environments setup-local` now reports the `E_PROVISION_CONFLICT` error code instead of the generic `E_PROVISION` when `uv sync` fails to resolve a dependency conflict. ([#6666](#6666))
 * Preserve SSH sessions across temporary tunnel disconnects, with bounded replay and backpressure for large transfers. ([#6650](#6650))
 * Allow OAuth U2M logins to override the CLI client ID with `--client-id`, profile `client_id`, or `DATABRICKS_CLIENT_ID`. ([#6594](#6594))

### Bundles

 * direct: Store a dashboard's `serialized_dashboard` in state as a content hash instead of its full contents. ([#6105](#6105))
 * direct: Fix pipelines recreation when the whole `ingestion_definition` block is added or removed. ([#6589](#6589))
 * `bundle plan`, `deploy`, and `destroy` no longer report removing `permissions`, `grants`, or secret scope ACLs from a bundle as a deletion, since it leaves the resource untouched. ([#6647](#6647))
 * `bundle plan` and `deploy` no longer list or count a resource that was already deleted remotely as a deletion, matching `bundle destroy`; applying still cleans up its stale state entry. ([#6675](#6675))
 * Fix `bundle run` failing with `expected an int, found a string` when an unrelated resource references another resource that is not deployed. `bundle run` now resolves `${resources.*}` references only within the resource being run. ([#6690](#6690))
 * Add grants support for the AI Gateway `model_service`, `mcp_service`, and `model_provider_service` resources (direct engine). ([#6635](#6635))
 * Add bundle support for the AI Gateway `mcp_service` resource (direct engine). ([#6633](#6633))
 * Add bundle support for the AI Gateway `model_provider_service` resource (direct engine). ([#6634](#6634))
 * Add bundle support for the AI Gateway `model_service` resource (direct engine). ([#6525](#6525))
 * Prevent resource drift on catalogs if `storage_root` contained a trailing slash in the URL. ([#6622](#6622))
 * Fixed a "lineage mismatch in state files" error that could occur after destroying a bundle and redeploying it from another machine. `bundle destroy` now removes the local state file so no stale lineage is left behind, and prunes the state directories it leaves empty (such as `.internal/` and `sync-snapshots/`). ([#6210](#6210), [#6685](#6685))
 * direct: `bundle plan` no longer reports a permanent update on a cluster that uses a cluster policy: when the cluster spec sets `policy_id`, a field present in the remote but absent from the bundle config is not treated as drift. ([#6531](#6531))
 * `bundle deploy` on the direct engine now reports each resource as soon as it is deployed, instead of listing them all after the deployment finishes. A deploy that fails part way through now reports the resources it did apply. ([#6361](#6361))
 * Direct-engine bundles no longer flag phantom drift on server-populated nested fields under reused config types (e.g. `external_locations` file-event-queue resource IDs, `database_instances` parent-instance refs, `apps` git credential ID). ([#6618](#6618))
 * `databricks bundle generate app` now reproduces a git-backed app's `git_repository` and `git_source` configuration instead of emitting a workspace `source_code_path`, so generating from a Git-deployed app no longer silently converts it to workspace source. ([#6656](#6656))
 * Improved configuration load time for bundles with many included files. ([#6195](#6195))
 * `bundle destroy` no longer deletes triggered job runs, leaving them untouched on the backend. ([#6672](#6672))
 * direct: resources.job\_runs: new lifecycle.triggers.on\_file\_change setting to restart the run when monitored files change. Can be set to a series of paths or globs. ([#6309](#6309))
 * Bundle summary now shows a name for Postgres branches, endpoints, databases, and roles instead of a blank Name field. ([#6663](#6663))
 * Added PyDABs (Python) support for cluster policies, dashboards, and Genie spaces. ([#6585](#6585))
 * CLI commands no longer imply that a resource whose type has no workspace URL is merely not deployed yet. ([#6583](#6583))
 * Capture the implicit dependency a vector search index has on a catalog or schema defined in the same bundle, so the catalog and schema are deployed first. ([#6655](#6655))

### Dependency Updates

 * Bump dependencies with known vulnerabilities. ([#6695](#6695))
 * Bump `github.com/databricks/databricks-sdk-go` from v0.177.0 to v0.178.0. ([#6673](#6673))
 * Bump Terraform provider from v1.131.0 to v1.132.0. ([#6671](#6671))
