-aws option in sddc create should accept the AWS account ID instead of GUID #193

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

If I try to pass AWS account ID to the option -aws to the cli sddc create, it fails and expects it to be a guid. Getting a GUID is cumbersome as users has to get the value from "/orgs/{{orgid}}/account-link/connected-accounts". It would be straightforward if aws account id is passed instead of GUID (that is the case in other cli and sub-commands)

Currently, the way the API works under the covers is to utilize the account GUID versus the Account ID. We can look into adding logic to accept the customer's Account ID and match to the account GUID, but that will be a larger lift than what's planned for the 2.0 release. We'll add this a feature request for the 2.5 release.
