[Docs]: netapp-ontap-lun documentation says to enter lun name but it needs to be a path.

Description

The documentation has this:

resource "netapp-ontap_lun" "storage_lun" {

required to know which system to interface with

cx_profile_name = "cluster4"
name = "ACC-import-lun"
svm_name = "carchi-test"
volume_name = "lunTest"
os_type = "linux"
size = 1048576
}
And this:
name (String) Lun name or location.logical_unit

But if you just put in a name you get an error.

Error: error creating storage_lun
│
│ with netapp-ontap_lun.mylun,

│ invalid value for a path. Examples of correct paths are "/vol/vol1/disk1" and "/vol/vol1/qtree1/disk1".",
│ Target:"name"}, statusCode: 400, statusCode 400

In order to fix the problem I had to create a "path" for the lun, then it created correctly.

locals {
lun_path = "/vol/${var.vol1_name}/lun1"
}

resource "netapp-ontap_lun" "mylun" {
cx_profile_name = var.clus_name
name = local.lun_path
svm_name = var.svm_name
volume_name = var.vol1_name
os_type = "linux"
size = "10"
size_unit = "gb"
}

At a minimum the documentation should change. This could also be considered a bug in my mind, where really the terraform should take the name and create a path.
