Description

For scenarios like key-rotation, I think it would be very useful to support a re-keying operation, where we decrypt the data key using one master key, and then re-encrypt with another master key. This also leverages the convenient envelope structure of the encrypted payload. I've noticed this is supported using the KMS Client (re-keying happens on the server side in that case), but feels like it should also exist in the SDK as well!

Thoughts?

Start by reading the AwsCrypto entry point and reviewing how the KMS Client performs re-keying on the server side. Trace the encrypted payload's envelope and data-key handling, then determine the SDK behavior needed to decrypt with one master key and re-encrypt with another. Done means the proposed operation is clearly scoped and preserves the encrypted payload structure.
