[BUG]: Repository 'security_and_analysis' settings are being sent even if they are unset, unchanged, or part of 'lifecycle.ignore_changes'

[fushi]

Expected Behavior

If the 'security_and_analysis' block is either unset, unchanged, or ignored by Terraform by using the ignore_changes list in the lifecycle block of a github_repository, then terraform apply should not send that block to the GitHub API.

Actual Behavior

The block above is sent to the GitHub API, which causes an issue even if it isn't a change.

This becomes an issue if/when the repository has an enterprise policy that prevents modifying the advanced security enablement:

│ Error: PATCH https://api.github.com/repos/$ORG_REDACTED/$REPO_REDACTED: 422 An enterprise policy prevented modifying advanced security enablement. Contact your enterprise owner for details. [] │ │ with github_repository.all['$REPO_REDACTED'], │ on main.tf line 1, in resource "github_repository" "all": │ 1: resource "github_repository" "all" {

curl -L \ -X PATCH \ -H "Accept: application/vnd.github+json" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $GH_TOKEN" \ -H "X-GitHub-Api-Version: 2022-11-28" \ https://api.github.com/repos/$ORG/$REPO \ -d '{"security_and_analysis":{"advanced_security":{"status":"enabled"}}}'

This is the equivalent cURL, and if an enterprise policy prohibits setting this, it will fail with a HTTP 422 even if the "new" setting matches the extant setting

We are also seeing this issue when destroying a github_repository resource with archive_on_destroy set to true.
