Description
### Describe your idea/feature/enhancement
I hope that the CloudFormationExecutionRole have least privilege.
Currently SAM-CLI attaches the following policy to the execution role:
```json
{
"Version": "2012-10-17",
"Statement": [
{
"Action": "*",
"Resource": "*",
"Effect": "Allow"
}
]
}
```
This seems to allow CloudFormation to create/delete anything in an account including IAM resouces, even if I just wan't to deploy an API.
### Proposal
I hope that there were policy templates for tipical usecases such as an API or an S3 event handler.
