AWS SSM Parameter Store GetParameters Action

A GitHub action centered on AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store GetParameters call, and placing the results into environment variables.

This action is optimized to use the least possible number of API calls to Parameter Store, to avoid the low rate limits.
