raw_json property of chef_data_bag_item is not used

[gscho]

Description

The raw_json property of the chef_data_bag_item resource is not used/respected when creating a data bag item

Chef Version

v16.11.7

Platform Version

Ubuntu-20.04

Replication Case

The following recipe can be used to replicate the issue.

my_data_bag_item = {}
my_data_bag_item['id'] = 'adam'
my_data_bag_item['real_name'] = 'Adam Brent Jacob'

chef_data_bag_item 'my_data_bag/adam' do
  raw_json my_data_bag_item
  action :create
  compile_time true
end

example = data_bag_item('my_data_bag', 'adam')

log example.inspect

Client Output

As you can see, the data bag only contains an id which itself is computed from the name of the resource. Nothing provided via raw_json gets added to the data bag.
