Description
### Problem:
The AWS docs mention "rotating cryptographic material" here: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/dynamodb-encryption-client/latest/devguide/most-recent-provider.html
However it could be more clear what "call the provider store's Create New Provider operation with the material name of the Most Recent Provider" means for this library.
### Solution:
This repo should have an example showing how to do this using the Metastore's newProvider() method.
### Out of scope:
Updating the corresponding AWS docs to reference this new example.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Read the linked AWS most-recent-provider guidance and the Metastore.newProvider() entry point first. Add a repository example that demonstrates using CachingMostRecentProvider and upgrading the material version, while leaving the AWS documentation unchanged as requested.
