Add ability to preserve successfully provisioned resources create by Cloudformation feature added on 30 Aug 2021

On 30 Aug 2021 AWS has released an ability to preserve the successfully provisioned resource and only roll back the failed resource. This feature has cut down my troubleshooting time literally in half. Is this something that can be achieved by the AWS Toolkit for Azure DevOps?

Hi @sboonyakiatACR

I'm assuming you're talking about Cloudformation's disableRollback? This isn't currently implemented but we can look to add this as a future option.

That's correct. It would be very useful to have that.

Just took a look, we should have disableRollback on the CloudFormation create/update stack task. Have you tried this, and if so, is this not meeting your current needs or expectations?

@bryceitoc9 disableRollback exists as an input for the CloudFormationCreateOrUpdateStack task, but it doesn't do anything. The task never references or uses the input. It looks like the input was added, but the logic was never implemented.
