Description

### Name of the resource

AWS::CloudFormation::TypeActivation

### Resource name

_No response_

### Description

I'm not entirely sure if this should extend the existing or be a new Resource. I'm opening it here as the Documenation at https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/aws-resource-cloudformation-typeactivation.html already mentions `Once you have activated a public third-party extension in your account and region, use SetTypeConfiguration to specify configuration properties for the extension.`

The Resource should support setting the TypeConfiguration as possible by the API described in https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/APIReference/API_SetTypeConfiguration.html

This is for example needed for the Datadog public types to set things like API Url or credentials.

Research direction

The issue identifies AWS::CloudFormation::TypeActivation and the SetTypeConfiguration API documentation; start by comparing the resource's current coverage with that API. Done means the resource can set TypeConfiguration for activated extensions, including configuration such as a Datadog API URL or credentials. No repository files or tests are named, so locate the implementation and validation coverage before starting.
