Constructs a new instance of a DeviceName class from the component parts of pattern
projects/{project}/locations/{location}/registries/{registry}/devices/{device}
Formats the IDs into the string representation of this DeviceName with pattern
projects/{project}/locations/{location}/registries/{registry}/devices/{device}.
Formats the IDs into the string representation of this DeviceName with pattern
projects/{project}/locations/{location}/registries/{registry}/devices/{device}.
If true will successfully store an unparseable resource name into the UnparsedResource
property; otherwise will throw an ArgumentException if an unparseable resource name is
specified.
