Create storage share gives conflicting information

[lastcoolnameleft]

The issue is that when creating a storage NFS file share, it says that NFS is not supported, despite having enabled NFS.

Here's how to reproduce the error:

# Verify using latest version
az version -o table
Azure-cli    Azure-cli-core    Azure-cli-telemetry
-----------  ----------------  ---------------------
2.81.0       2.81.0            1.1.0

# Create storage account with NFS V3 enabled
az storage account create -n ${STORAGE_ACCOUNT} -g ${RESOURCE_GROUP} \
    --kind StorageV2 --sku Standard_LRS \
    --enable-hierarchical-namespace -o none \
    --allow-shared-key-access false \
    --enable-nfs-v3 \
    --default-action Deny

# Verify NFS is enabled:
az storage account show -n $STORAGE_ACCOUNT --resource-group $RESOURCE_GROUP  | grep -i nfs
  "enableNfsV3": true,

# Create NFS Share:
az storage share-rm create \
  --resource-group $RESOURCE_GROUP \
  --storage-account $STORAGE_ACCOUNT \
  --name $SHARE_NAME \
  --enabled-protocol NFS \
  --quota 5
(FeatureNotSupportedForAccount) NfsFileShares is not supported for the account.
Code: FeatureNotSupportedForAccount
Message: NfsFileShares is not supported for the account.

Expected behavior

I would expect it proceed with creating the share since NFS is enabled, or at least provide a more accureate error message.

When creating a NFS fileshare, please use these params: FileStorage kind and Premium sku,
az storage account create -n ${STORAGE_ACCOUNT} -g ${RESOURCE_GROUP} --kind FileStorage --sku Premium_LRS --allow-shared-key-access false --default-action Deny
az storage share-rm create --resource-group ${RESOURCE_GROUP} --storage-account ${STORAGE_ACCOUNT} --name ${SHARE_NAME} --enabled-protocol NFS
