Allow use of aws-lc-rs instead of ring for the aws-config sso feature flag #1317

Description

@jarbaugh8

Describe the feature

The aws-config sso feature flag currently requires the ring dependency.

The rest of this crate has switched to using aws-lc-rs instead of ring by default, though users can still use ring with some additional configuration.

It would be nice if the crypto crate used by the aws-config sso feature flag were configurable in some way to pick between aws-lc-rs and ring (or maybe it could somehow inherit this from the HTTPS client configuration).

Use Case

I'm trying to use a single crypto provider in my application, and I've standardized on aws-lc-rs. Even though this use of ring is not very substantial (and might not be meaningful from a FIPS compliance perspective), having it in my dependency tree makes it harder to verify if this is the only use of ring in my application, as many other crates may have ring as their default.
