Description
In createIoTThings.py there is a command that takes a .json config and deletes all AWS entities described in there. This PR extends that command to search the credentials directory, and identify AWS Thing certificates before asking to delete these Things and their possibly related entities (which are generated using the .json config as well). This PR also documents this command in aws_tool.md.
This PR extends support for the .json config introduced by create-update-simplified and cleanup-simplified. This PR also documents this change in aws_tool.md and updates the example .json config with 4 new fields. The user-inputted variables are now stored in a dictionary data type within the Python script, as this makes it possible to extract the logic for getting these variables (either from the JSON or command line) into a single function to avoid code duplication.
