Create empty dynamodb table for AWS

[choilmto]

Upon merging, I can add another module for creating an item in the table.

Check format complained about aligning the = signs:

• https://github.com/ContainerSolutions/terraform-examples/pull/79/checks?check_run_id=3233032058

You can also check this manually (beware that it will automatically apply a fix to your code too):

./bin/check_format.sh

   # Explanation: the number of write units for the table
   write_capacity = 10
   hash_key       = var.changeme_hash_key

I'll try to fix this here.

I've added a formatting fix: https://github.com/ContainerSolutions/terraform-examples/pull/79/commits/e8756893250fb8c270a6cde78951c341f9319278

Will run the CI on integration (once it's free) and merge.

@ianmiell could you please add the needed AWS role? (probably "dynamodb:*" should do the trick)

AWS permissions are missing for: dynamodb:CreateTable on resource: arn:aws:dynamodb:us-east-1:684157722011:table/changeme_table_name
