AWS::RDS::DBCluster Password management with Amazon Aurora and AWS Secrets Manager

[csotomon]

Describe the feature

Amazon Aurora integrates with Secrets Manager to manage master user passwords for your DB clusters.

This feature is implemented on the aws_cdk.aws_rds.CfnDBCluster construct but not on the aws_cdk.aws_rds.DatabaseCluster construct.

At the moment unique way to activated is running a
cluster.node.default_child.add_override('Properties.ManageMasterUserPassword', True) instruction.

Use Case

I need to activate the password management for an aurora Serverless V2 database using secret manager.

Proposed Solution

add this parameter in the aws_cdk.aws_rds.DatabaseCluster class constructor.

Yes I think we could expose that to the L2 props. Any pull requests are welcome and appreciated.

I have a branch where I've implemented this feature, but I'm not really sure how to move forward with creating a reasonable integration test for it.
