Adds a 5-minute quickstart for deploying LocalStack into a Kubernetes
cluster using kind and the LocalStack Operator, provisioning a sample
Lambda + RDS application with Terraform.

Closes DOC-224.

hey @blkgrlcto, the quickstarts do not belong inside of Getting Started. (we are keeping those 2 separate from now on, per PR 606 😸 )

This is part of the new Quickstart Library, so this will have it's own directory, let's go with: /aws/quickstart-library/

### Step 3: Deploy the LocalStack Operator

LocalStack operator is not available by default when someone starts a trial. We need to either:

  1. Inform the customer about this and have them contact support or sales to get this added to their trial
  2. Keep the getting started focussed on the helm deployment which shouldn't have any restrictions
  3. make the operator and executor available by default on the trial

Note: Our kubernetes deployment is now much stronger that when we decided to take it off the trial so my recommendation would be #3


Proceed once the pod shows `1/1 Running`.

### Step 5: Set up port forwarding

I would add a section here to validate that the web app can connect to the localstack container as well. the webapp is an easy way to verify that your environment is up and running
