This PR allows using the AWS.Tools powershell modules for the AWSPowershellModuleScript task.
Description
This PR changes the logic for autoinstalling the AWSPowershell module. Currently, the task will check if the AWSPowershell module is installed, and install it if it isn't. This change makes it so the task first checks for the AWS.Tools.Common module, and if it finds it, it does not attempt to install or import the AWSPowershell module. Additionally, if the AWS.Tools.Common module is found, it will attempt to import the AWS.Tools.SecurityToken module to facilitate role assumption using service connections.
This may break assuming a role via a service connection for agents that have AWS.Tools.Common installed without AWS.Tools.SecurityToken
Motivation
This allows agents to use the AWS.Tools powershell modules. These are the recommended way to install the AWS powershell cmdlets per this page, and they avoid the excessive load times seen with the monolithic modules.
