Description
### Name of the resource
AWS::EC2::VPNConnection
### Resource name
_No response_
### Description
Scope: New attribute (PreSharedKeyStorage) is required for existing resource AWS::EC2::VPNConnection.
This attribute is currently available in CLI (create-vpn-connection) and API (API_CreateVpnConnection) but missing in Cloudformation. The requirement is to provide [enhanced security features ](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/vpn/latest/s2svpn/enhanced-security.html)for site to site VPN resources provisioned via cloudformation. We would want to store the pre-shared key in a secretsmanager secret.
### Other Details
Cloudformation reference - https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/TemplateReference/aws-resource-ec2-vpnconnection.html
API doc - https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/APIReference/API_CreateVpnConnection.html

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start with the AWS::EC2::VPNConnection CloudFormation reference, then compare the CreateVpnConnection API and create-vpn-connection CLI documentation linked in the issue. Done means the resource supports the PreSharedKeyStorage attribute and allows the pre-shared key to be stored in a Secrets Manager secret.
