The recent addition of "aws login" to AWS CLI finally gives a user-friendly best practice way to acquire AWS credentials for use in interactive workflows. Combined with the pre-existing support for authenticating using JSON web tokens (by "web identity", as AWS calls it), there's no longer any good reason for most users of this backend to explicitly configure AWS credentials. Now that OpenTofu itself supports using credentials issued by "aws login", this reorganizes our documentation to begin with opinionated recommendations for how to provide credentials for the S3 backend in both interactive and non-interactive settings, and explicitly documents the inline static configuration settings as an absolute last resort not recommended in any cases. This new documentation also includes links to the relevant parts of the AWS CLI documentation, since there's a lot of extra detail there which may be useful for someone trying to debug why their setup isn't working.
