Description

Adds an OpenBao authentication plugin for AWS IAM credentials. It lets OpenBao verify AWS identities and map them to policies for secret access.

Use it when workloads or users should authenticate through AWS IAM. IAM roles, trust relationships, and OpenBao policies must be reviewed carefully because mistakes can grant access to secrets.
