Question

is there a standard practice for validating inputs into a component that are passed in as `pulumi StringInput` types in go I know I could just make them a `string` and validate them but there may be cases where they could be supplied by the end user or as an output from like a data source So I wasn t sure how to validate them when they are `pulumi StringInput` values do I need to do a ` ToStringOutput ApplyT ` and validate within the applier
