When a resource is deleted out of band, Read returned the No match found error from GetByID, failing the whole plan instead of letting Terraform recreate it. GetByID reports count 0 for a genuinely missing resource and count -1 for a transport error, so Read now clears the id and returns nil only when count is 0, and still returns the error otherwise. Applied to attach_volume, cluster, loadbalancer, physical_network, pod, secondary_storage, storage_pool, vlan_ip_range and zone. Tests cover both the deleted case (id cleared) and a transport error (id preserved).

Description
When a resource is deleted out of band, its Read still returned the "No match found" error from GetByID, which fails the whole plan instead of letting Terraform recreate the resource. GetByID reports count 0 for a genuinely missing resource and count -1 for a transport error, so Read now clears the id and returns nil only when count is 0, and still returns the error otherwise. Applied to the resources whose Read did not already handle this: attach_volume, cluster, loadbalancer, physical_network, pod, secondary_storage, storage_pool, vlan_ip_range, and zone.
Testing
Added a unit test
TestZoneReadRemovesDeletedFromStatecovering the zone resource as a representative case, using a stub server that returns an empty list so GetZoneByID reports count 0. It needs no live CloudStack:Before the fix Read returns the "No match found" error; after it, Read clears the id and returns nil.
