In init, we can check to see if the target dir already has the provider we are seeking and skip further querying/installing of that provider.
This will help address concerns users are having where they've previously installed a provider (ex. that is in their
.terraform
directory after install) and subsequent installs keep re-fetching the package. While we've been telling users this installation is expected behavior, I think we can make a nicer flow by making things faster by re-using that same provider if it's already installed.Closes #27534
