ResourceGroupEnabled may be a little confusing, I will change it to
GroupRoutingEnabled. This means routingProvider should consider aggregate all
partition/instances from all resources from the same resourceGroup.
ResourceGroup Name and Instance Tag for a resource can be used for other
purpose, only when the GroupRoutingEnabled is true, they are combined together
to provide this group routing feature. This also says, GroupRoutingEnabled is
true implicitly means ResourceGroup and ResourceTag (instanceTag) are set in
the IdealState, and resourceTag is identical in each resource from the same
resource group. But this constraints are not necessary if GroupRoutingEnable
is false. For example, now many resources could have same instanceGroupTag.
