AWS Broker implementation

This uses SNS and SQS to produce a pub/sub broker implementation. To use this broker, you must provide AWS credentials. All queue permissions management is handled by the credentials, and all AWS-related errors are forwarded to the consumer.

Topic/Queue naming convention

All SNS topics are prefixed with pubsub__.

All SQS queues are prefixed with pubsub__<topic>_

The SNS topics and SQS queues are created on-demand whenever the topic is first published or subscribed to.

Two subscribers to the same topic with the same subscriptionID will share messages from the same message queue.
