Problem
When a stack is in
ROLLBACK_COMPLETEstate (e.g., after a failed first deploy), it cannot be updated. The action would fail with an error, requiring manual intervention to delete the stack.Solution
Detect
ROLLBACK_COMPLETEstate indeployStack, automatically delete the stuck stack, wait for deletion to complete, then recreate it via a new change set.Adds a
waitUntilStackDeleteCompletehelper that handles all delete completion scenarios (DELETE_COMPLETE, stack disappears, ValidationError).Testing
Closes #107
