SUMMARY
This change adds a new credential plugin that allows for the lookup of temporary AWS credentials using the AWS AssumeRole API. An AWS User Account may be configured either in the AssumeRole credential plugin (with an Access Key and Secret Key) or the default AWS API authentication may be used within the execution environment.
Prior to execution a job, the AWS AssumeRole API is called with the specified role name (ARN). If the authentication is successful, a temporary Access Key, Secret Key and Session Token are generated by AWS and used to populate a standard AWS Access Credential.
