Paramaterstore

[jmahowald]

AWS Parameter Store (SSM) has native support for "SecureString" types. This ends up being easier to integrate in to get the actual root token if another process needs it for vault provisioning. I debated changing just the actual logic of the KMS store, but figured it's less impactful downstream if I just created a new mode.

Thanks for your PR @jmahowald. Sorry that it took a while. I am having this issue when I am trying to run the CI tests: (Sorry these are not yet publicly accessible)

@jmahowald tried your branch, it works perfectly with parameters store.

+1 for using SecureStrings without any base64 encoding in parameter store. @simonswine - can we help get this merged?
