core: Better error message for prematurely-removed provider config

This error message appears in a situation that is often confusing for
users, since the connection between resources and their providers in the
state is not something we draw attention to in the user experience of
Terraform.

This new error message tries to be a bit clearer about what the user must
do to resolve it. It's still not perfect since it doesn't cover the
variant of this problem where an entire module containing a provider block
and resources has been removed at the same time, but since there isn't
an easily-summarizable way to continue in that state this will need to
do for the moment, until we find a way to file off that rough edge in
the workflow.
