Description
It would be great to add support for obtaining keys based on `AssumeRole` feature. \
I'm thinking about a feature where one could provide the roleArn and other identifiers and the temp tokens are obtained and stored in a named profile based on the instanceProfiles.
This will be useful cross account deployments.
I will be happy to submit a patch if there is enough interest.

Research direction
The issue does not name files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the plugin's existing instance-profile credential handling and determine how roleArn, other identifiers, temporary tokens, and named profiles should interact; done means cross-account AssumeRole credentials work as described.
