Description
### Describe the feature
A context provider that will return the id of the identity source for SSO.
### Use Case
An Identity Center Group, requires the Id of the identity Store to create a Group.
```
const group = new aws_identitystore.CfnGroup(this, 'Resource', {
identityStoreId: props.identityStoreId,
description: props.description,
displayName: props.name,
});
```
Currently this can be provided, manually by providing a value in cdk.json, or a slightly anti-pattern custom resource lookup.
Groups are at the heart of creating policy for Verified Permissions and Verified Access.
### Proposed Solution
Implement a IdentityCenterStore Id Context Procider Plugin.. The can follow the pattern of other providers, such as [hosted-zones](https://github.com/aws/aws-cdk/blob/eea223b52f4445e6084b1fa1fa15a3a78f83fa18/packages/aws-cdk/lib/context-providers/hosted-zones.ts)
### Other Information
- A custom resource can be used to get the value, but this has the possiblity of non determinism if the value changed, so is anti-pattern.
- The value can be provided manually in cdk.context.

Research direction
Start by reading packages/aws-cdk/lib/context-providers/hosted-zones.ts to understand the existing context-provider pattern, then trace how a provider for an Identity Center identity store would be registered and queried. Done means the provider returns the identity store ID needed by an Identity Center Group without requiring a manual cdk.context value or custom resource.
