Description

Per AWS documentation deleting SNS topics with archive_policy is not allowed.

To avoid accidental message deletions, you can not delete a topic with an active message archive policy. The topic's message archive policy must be deactivated before the topic can be deleted. When you deactivate a message archive policy, Amazon SNS deletes all of the archived messages. When deleting a topic, subscriptions are removed, and any messages in transit may not be delivered.

This makes it cumbersome to manage deletion of such resources with TF. Consider implementing a feature that automates deactivating the archive policy on deletion (possibly as an opt-in and not default behavior).
