S3 Lifecycle module is missing a cast to integer for transitions list

Summary

Hi, I have noticed that when using the community.aws.s3_lifecycle module, AWS S3 complains that values passed for the transition_days of a life cycle transition are of string type instead of integer:

"msg": "Parameter validation failed:\nInvalid type for parameter LifecycleConfiguration.Rules[0].Transitions[0].Days, value: 5, type: <class 'str'>, valid types: <class 'int'>",

This is what I have for my transition rule:

- name: Manage S3 bucket lifecycle rules in AWS
  community.aws.s3_lifecycle:
    name: "<BUCKET NAME>"
    state: present
    status: enabled
    expiration_days: "{{ s3_bucket.lifecycle.expiration_days | int }}"
    transitions:
      - storage_class: "{{ s3_bucket.lifecycle.storage_class }}"
        transition_days: "{{ s3_bucket.lifecycle.transition_days }}"

With expiration_days having a value of 30 and transition_days having a value of 15.

Looking at the code, I suspect that passing the type instructs Ansible to perform an internal conversion:

def main():
    s3_storage_class = ['glacier', 'onezone_ia', 'standard_ia', 'intelligent_tiering', 'deep_archive']
    argument_spec = dict(
        ...
        expiration_days=dict(type='int'), <--- type here in int

The conversion isn't performed for parameters in transtions, because this is a list of dicts:

transitions=dict(type='list', elements='dict'),

When the rule is being built via the build_rule function, the value is retrieved "as is", which can be a string if the value has been templated by Jinja2.

I suggest to force the cast to integer via the following change. This way, irrespective of the type being "rendered" (either native int or str from Jinja2 templating), we always send the correct type:

transition_days = int(module.params.get("transition_days"))

I could be missing something, but in my test, forcing the conversion solved the issue.

OS / Environment

Fedora release 34 (Thirty Four)

Steps to Reproduce

object_expire_days: 30
object_storage_class: "glacier"
object_transition_days: 15

###
s3_bucket:
  encryption: "AES256"
  force: false
  lifecycle:
    storage_class: "{{ object_storage_class | default('intelligent_tiering', true) }}"
    transition_days: "{{ object_transition_days | default(30) }}"
    expiration_days: "{{ object_expire_days | default(90) }}"
  name: "test-bucket"

###
- name: Manage S3 bucket lifecycle rules in AWS
  community.aws.s3_lifecycle:
    name: "{{ s3_bucket.name }}"
    state: present
    status: enabled
    expiration_days: "{{ s3_bucket.lifecycle.expiration_days | int }}"
    transitions:
      - storage_class: "{{ s3_bucket.lifecycle.storage_class }}"
        transition_days: "{{ s3_bucket.lifecycle.transition_days | int }}"

Expected Results

I expect the module to treat my input value as integer instead of string

Actual Results

"msg": "Parameter validation failed:\nInvalid type for parameter LifecycleConfiguration.Rules[0].Transitions[0].Days, value: 5, type: <class 'str'>, valid types: <class 'int'>",
