Bad session token error masked if not creating a new bucket

[kimvanwyk]

If a bad or expired session token is set, the create command fails with a misleading error that an existing bucket doesn't exist, if --create-bucket isn't specified. If --create-bucket is specified a traceback with more info is given instead:

export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID="..."
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY="..."
export AWS_SESSION_TOKEN="EXPIRED_TOKEN" 

$ s3-credentials create --username USERNAME BUCKET
Error: Bucket does not exist: BUCKET - try --create-bucket to create it

$ s3-credentials create --create-bucket --username USERNAME BUCKET

I think the root problem is in this function: https://github.com/simonw/s3-credentials/blob/7fb4db197820851db353a90d38499ece488e73d2/s3_credentials/cli.py#L18-L23

It looks like it's turning all errors - not just "bucket does not exist" but also "authentication failed" - into a False which is then treated by this code as meaning the bucket did not exist:

I'm tempted to define a new AuthenticationFailed exception as a subclass of click.ClickException which I can then raise from inside that function.

A tiny bit inelegant since it's tied to Click, but I can unwind it into a separate click-free exception if I ever implement the Python library idea in #32.

This looks like a good way to catch these errors that aren't actually related to missing buckets.
