Description

The argument message_retention_duration for google_pubsub_topic is limited to Cannot be more than 7 days according to its terraform documentation.

However the Google Cloud documentation allows for up to 31 days since a change in December 2021. See Google's blog post for more details.

It would be very helpful to clarify the terraform documentation of google_pubsub_topic by including the latest change concerning the maximal duration.
