Description

Not 100% sure if you consider this under the scope of the project, but I think this would be extremely useful:
Adding support for Systems Manager Parameter Store (retrieving / setting params), so you could easily use more sensitive data, like API keys, credentials, etc., that you wouldn't want committed into your source code.
There is a nice implementation in this AWS blog post that could probably be integrated into Chalice:

Start by reading the linked AWS blog post and reviewing Chalice's existing configuration and deployment entry points; the issue names no specific files or tests. Done should mean Chalice supports retrieving and setting Systems Manager Parameter Store values for sensitive data such as API keys and credentials.
