Datadog AWS Log Forwarding

You are helping a user set up AWS log forwarding to Datadog using Terraform.

This deploys the Datadog Forwarder Lambda in the user's AWS account and registers its ARN on the existing AWS integration. Datadog then automatically subscribes the selected AWS log sources (CloudWatch log groups and S3 buckets) to the forwarder - no manual subscription filters required.

This skill builds on the AWS integration: the datadog_integration_aws_account resource and the integration IAM role must already exist (Phase 0 checks this, and hands off to dd-aws-integration when it is missing). Work in the same Terraform project that the integration created.
