AWS cli documentation change

Summary

Added KEYPAIR authentication type support and OAuthClientCredentials structure documentation for QuickSight data source updates

Security assessment

The change adds documentation for KEYPAIR authentication type and OAuth 2.0 client credentials authentication (ClientId, ClientSecret, Username), which are security-related authentication methods. However, there is no evidence this addresses a specific security vulnerability or incident - it appears to be routine feature documentation updates for new authentication options.
