These stateful disks will never be deleted during autohealing,
update or VM instance recreate operations. This flag is used to
configure if the disk should be deleted after it is no longer used
by the group, e.g. when the given instance or the whole group is
deleted. Note: disks attached in READ_ONLY mode cannot be
auto-deleted.
