Sweeper: aws_elasticache_cluster does not correctly handle Cluster that is last member of Replication Group

[gdavison]

The aws_elasticache_cluster sweeper depends on the aws_elasticache_replication_group sweeper. If the aws_elasticache_replication_group fails for some reason, the member clusters still exists and will be picked up by the aws_elasticache_cluster sweeper.

If the Cluster sweeper tries to delete the last member Cluster in a Replication Group, it receives the following error:

InvalidCacheClusterState: Cannot delete the cache cluster since it is the only member of a replication group. Delete the replication group instead.

Aside from one particular case, the InvalidCacheClusterState error is retried for 5 minutes.
