cdktf/testing: Add shouldTerraformApplyAndDestroy

[so0k]

Description

Comparing cdktf/testing library to terratest, would it make sense to add full end to end testing helpers?

For example, a complex VPC Construct may want to confirm connectivity works once everything is provisioned... what is the recommended integration testing for CDKTF?

Suggestion:

• Add shouldTerraformApplyAndDestroy matcher with optional Validate function argument called in between apply and destroy

Alternatively, rely fully on terraform test for full integration testing and add support for test command in cdktf-cli.
