Description

### Use case

I'm going through a first time setup, and after running `cloudfront-hosting-toolkit deploy`, I receive the following error:

```
[ERROR] Impossible to connect to your the AWS account. Try to authenticate and try again.
```

I haven't yet authenticated the AWS cli. I have a few AWS account profiles configured in `~/.aws/credentials`, and would like to authenticate only for the duration of the deploy command, as not to interfere with other projects.

### Solution/User Experience

It would be ideal to specify a profile parameter, for example `cloudfront-hosting-toolkit deploy --profile my-account`

As an example of an existing implementation, AWS SAM deploy supports the profile parameter:
