Description

Adds documentation and a working example for using authorization_type = "AWS_IAM" with API Gateway HTTP APIs. This includes:

  • A new route example in examples/complete-http/main.tf demonstrating AWS_IAM authorization
  • Updated main README.md with a concise AWS_IAM usage example

Motivation and Context

Closes #86

I was struggling to understand how to configure AWS_IAM authorization for API Gateway routes. The existing documentation didn't include any examples of this authorization type, making it unclear how to set up the route with authorization_type IAM.

Breaking Changes

None - this is a documentation-only enhancement.
