[Enhancement]: Sort Bucket Objects

[rpf3]

Description

It would be useful to be able to sort the bucket objects returned by the aws_s3_objects resource. I think by default the results returned from this resource are ordered by object key. I have a few use cases where I want the most recently modified object. I think this can accomplished using the s3api.

aws s3api list-objects-v2 --bucket "my-bucket" --query "sort_by(Contents, &LastModified)[-1]"

Affected Resource(s) and/or Data Source(s)

• aws_s3_objects

Potential Terraform Configuration

data "aws_s3_objects" "most_recent_object" {
  bucket = "my-bucket"
  max_keys = 1
  sort_by = "lastModified"
}
