Creates a new VM instance with Debian 10 operating system in specified network and subnetwork.

@param {string} projectId - Project ID or project number of the Cloud project you want to use.
@param {string} zone - Name of the zone to create the instance in. For example: "us-west3-b".
@param {string} instanceName - Name of the new virtual machine (VM) instance.
@param {string} networkLink - Name of the network you want the new instance to use.
  For example: "global/networks/default" represents the network
  named "default", which is created automatically for each project.
@param {string} subnetworkLink - Name of the subnetwork you want the new instance to use.
  This value uses the following format:
  "regions/{region}/subnetworks/{subnetwork_name}"
