Description

### Describe the feature

I just ran into the issue described here - https://github.com/aws/aws-cdk/issues/3414

I see the issue has been closed with a workaround, but wanted to add a feature request for making the process easier.

### Use Case

CDK changes involving changing stack dependencies, especially when using CD pipelines are very time consuming. I don't know what the solution is, but it would be very useful if being able to change stack dependencies without doing two phase commits.

### Proposed Solution

_No response_

### Other Information

_No response_

### Acknowledgements

- [ ] I may be able to implement this feature request
- [ ] This feature might incur a breaking change

### CDK version used

^2.14.0

### Environment details (OS name and version, etc.)

Amazon Linux 2 x86_64

Research direction

No source file, test, or entry point is identified. Start by reading the linked aws-cdk issue and the CDK stack-dependency behavior described here, then trace how dependency changes are handled in CD pipelines. Done would mean changing stack dependencies without requiring two-phase commits.
