Add section for setting up AWS credentials in Terraform+EKS doc

Pam Artiaga requested to merge pam/update-new-eks-cluster-doc into master

What does this MR do and why?

A user encountered an error when trying the gitlab-terraform-eks example project, which had a related problem where some AWS resources were not created because of incomplete permissions. The user was following the Infrastructure as Code -> Create an Amazon EKS cluster documentation.

This change adds a section in the documentation on setting up the required AWS credentials. This follows the Infrastructure as Code -> Create a Google GKE cluster documentation, which has a section on GCP credentials.
