SSM GetConnectionStatus Does Not Match ConnectionStatus Types

Documentation

• [X] I've gone though the API reference
• [X] I've checked AWS Forums and StackOverflow for answers
• [X] I've searched for previous similar issues and didn't find any solution

Describe the bug

The status returned from the GetConnectionStatus call returns a status with the string "notconnected" or "connected". The types ConnectionStatusConnected has a value of "Connected". When comparing the status the following code always returns false.

resp, err := svc.GetConnectionStatus(context.Background(), &ssm.GetConnectionStatusInput{
	Target: aws.String("TEST_ID"),
})
if resp.Status == ConnectionStatusConnected {
...
}

Expected behavior

Either the response from the api call should have a status of "Connected" or the ConnectionStatusConnected should be set to "connected"

Current behavior

The api call returns a status that is all lowercase characters but the constant type has capital letters.

Steps to Reproduce

import (
	"context"
	"fmt"

	"github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go-v2/aws"
	"github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go-v2/config"
	"github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go-v2/service/ssm"
	ssmtype "github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go-v2/service/ssm/types"
)

func main() {
	cfg, err := config.LoadDefaultConfig(context.TODO())
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
	svc := ssm.NewFromConfig(cfg)
	resp, err := svc.GetConnectionStatus(context.Background(), &ssm.GetConnectionStatusInput{
		Target: aws.String("TEST_INSTANCE_ID"),
	})
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
	fmt.Println(resp.Status)
	fmt.Println(ssmtype.ConnectionStatusConnected)
	fmt.Println(resp.Status == ssmtype.ConnectionStatusConnected)
}

1. Replace "TEST_INSTANCE_ID" with the id of an ec2 instance that has the SSM agent connected.
2. Run the code

Hi @toneill818 is this still persisting with the latest version of SDK? I am having trouble to reproduce the same behavior?
