Description
### Describe the feature
I would like to propose a function similar to `aws sts assume-role-with-saml` but instead of returning the credentials to stdout, it will update the credentials file. There is already precedence for the aws cli updating files via the `aws codeartifact login` command. I think this would be a nice quality of life feature to save clients copying and pasting the credentials or writing their own code to update the credentials file.
### Use Case
When I log in with SAML, I have to copy and paste the returned credentials into the credentials file, or I have to write code to update the credentials file. It would be nice to have a native function to update the credentials file for me.
