Description
### Describe the feature
For using [CreateSession API of the service IAM Roles Anywhere](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/rolesanywhere/latest/userguide/authentication-create-session.html) AWS recommends to use the standalone tool **aws_signing_helper**. It is well integrated because is a part of standard ~/.aws/config file.
But in some cases it ist not compliant with security regulations due to starting of extra programs.
Surprisingly this Java SDK, as well as other AWS SDKs don't provide a support for Create Session API. Why not?
Please include the support of **CreateSession API of the service IAM Roles Anywhere** to the SDK.
### Use Case
In some cases it ist not compliant with security regulations due to starting of extra programs. I would like to call CreateSession API on my own, f.e. at the boot phase of a program, without the extra process aws_signing_helper **is** started.
### Proposed Solution
On the Internet there are a couple of solution, people have implemented for work around this problem.
