the resource, especially for resource in ``*_FAILED`` state, there is a
default implementation of ``needs_replace_failed`` in
``heat.engine.resource.Resource`` that simply returns ``True`` indicating
that updates require replacement. And we override the implementation for
``OS::Nova::Server``, ``OS::Cinder::Volume`` and all of neutron resources.

and whether the real status is available. So override the method
``needs_replace_failed`` for your resource plug-ins if needed.
