GCP Compute Address
A GCP Compute Address represents a static, reserved IPv4 or IPv6 address (either internal or external) that can be attached to a variety of Google Cloud resources such as VM instances, load balancers or VPN gateways. Reserving an address ensures it remains constant even if the resource it is attached to is stopped or deleted, which is essential for stable DNS records, firewall rules and peer-to-peer networking.
For more information, see the official documentation: https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/reference/rest/v1/addresses.

A Compute Address is effectively an IP resource: the value exposed by this object is the actual IP address that other services consume. Linking to the generic ip type lets Overmind trace what concrete IP (v4 or v6) is reserved and understand how it is referenced by other resources across environments.
