Work around for using Azure Managed Service Identities to discover Consul Server IP addresses. Waiting for [this](https://github.com/hashicorp/go-discover/pull/102) PR on go-discover to be approved
## The Env Vars

# CONSUL_VMSS_RG
# CONSUL_VMSS_NAME
## were prepended to this script at provisioning time with Terraform via custom_data/cloud-init
