WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why EntireVmRestoreCloudDirector needs a policy

Restoring an entire VM creates or recreates a VM instance from backup, which is a write/create operation. It is not destructive in the traditional sense (it doesn't delete data), but it does materially alter infrastructure state by spinning up or overwriting a VM. The blast radius is high because misuse could overwrite a running production VM with an older backup, causing data loss or service disruption.
