Terraform Provider to generate IAM access keys without storing the secret in the statefile

Usage

You can use the provider in your terraform files to create IAM users:

provider "aws" {
    region = "us-east-1"
}

provider "awscreds" {
    region = "us-east-1"
}

resource "aws_iam_user" "my_cool_user" {
    name = "my_cool_user"

resource "awscreds_iam_access_key" {
    user = "${aws_iam_user.my_cool_user.name}"
    file = "./secret_creds"
}

The "awscreds" provider takes all the same options as the "aws" provider, and has the same behavior (it checks the same default environment variables and configs for credentials).

The "awscreds_iam_access_key" resource accepts the same options as the "aws_iam_access_key" resource (currently just "user"), and additionally requires the "file" option, which should be the path in which to store the access key and secret key. They are stored newline-delimited in the file.
