Description
**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
Not a blocker type problem, but in many situations, users like to limit a role or custom policy to only the **required** permissions for the resource invoking it. Generally the SDK's methods lineup with the AWS CLI commands (which is a great thing!), however this often leads to sometimes messing around with permissions found in the policy permissions tables in the AWS docs (such as a lot of permissions to `get` things like EC2 instance information, also require the `list` permission etc etc).
**Describe the solution you'd like**
When invoking `aws RESOURCE ACTION help` it would be nice if in the man page documentation, there was a note or section of `required IAM permissions`, so that it is easy to see what permissions you, or your role may need to execute this.
