Describe the feature
RDSAuthTokenGenerator has static GenerateAuthToken and GenerateAuthTokenAsync methods to generate an auth token for RDS. It cannot have the credentials resolved by the NETCore.Setup package because there is no AWS service client instance constructed. AWSCredentials can be passed to a GenerateAuthToken overload or FallbackCredentialsFactory is used. Either way currently requires separate configuration than what is provided by NETCore.Setup.
NETCore.Setup does not provide a way of directly getting the configured AWSCredentials either. It would be beneficial to be able to get an AWSCredentials instance from AWSOptions so that only one configuration method needs to be implemented for an application.
Use Case
Use AWSSDK.Extensions.NETCore.Setup to configure AWS credentials for RDSAuthTokenGenerator.
Proposed Solution
ConfigurationExtensions.GetAWSOptions can currently be used to get an instance of AWSOptions that has the Profile and Region populated according to the configuration. There is a Credentials property on AWSOptions but it is null on the returned instance. If the AWSOptions could provide the resolved AWSCredentials instance it could be passed to RDSAuthTokenGenerator.
A new method or property could be added to AWSOptions to get the AWSCredentials or the Credentials getter could create the AWSCredentials when not set externally.
