[Feature]: improve missing ID handling ("undefined response type") #783
Description
Description
when a value like project_id is set empty (""), through misconfiguration, the URLs constructed in API requests may look like "POST /metal/v1/projects//devices".
This results in API/HTTP errors like:
HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden
Connection: close
Content-Length: 404
Content-Type: text/html

and a Terraform error like: error: undefined response type
A better experience would be for Terraform validation to ensure that these required values are not empty strings.
There may be other ways to improve the handling of these 403/HTML errors.
