ses: allow ConfigurationSet to disable suppression list

[Tietew]

Describe the feature

ConfigurationSet have a option to override suppression list settings.
AWS console allows us to disable suppression list:

But ConfigurationSet L2 construct only allows to specify one or more supression reasons.
CloudFormation supports to disable suppression list by specifying SuppressionOptions.SuppressionReasons resource property to [] (empty array).

Use Case

Disabling suppression list allows us to send an e-mail to already suppressed (in account-level suppression list) destinations.
This behavior is useful to send verification code to verify whether an e-mail address is reachable.

Proposed Solution

Introduce disableSuppressionList property.

Usage:

// disable suppression list
new ses.ConfigurationSet(this, 'ConfigurationSet', {
  disableSuppressionList: true,
});

// default - account-level suppression settings will be used
new ses.ConfigurationSet(this, 'ConfigurationSet', {
  disableSuppressionList: false,
});

// error - suppressionReasons must be absent
new ses.ConfigurationSet(this, 'ConfigurationSet', {
  disableSuppressionList: true,
  suppressionReasons: ses.SuppressionReasons.BOUNCE,
});

// redundant but allowed - override suppression reasons
new ses.ConfigurationSet(this, 'ConfigurationSet', {
  disableSuppressionList: false,
  suppressionReasons: ses.SuppressionReasons.BOUNCE,
});

Escape hatch available:

const configurationSet = new ses.ConfigurationSet(this, 'ConfigurationSet');
(configurationSet.node.defaultChild as ses.CfnConfigurationSet).addPropertyOverride('SuppressionOptions.SuppressedReasons', []);

Hi @Tietew , thanks for requesting this. I agree , having a flag or property would have been easier option than manually overrriding the L1 construct property -https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cdk/api/v2/docs/aws-cdk-lib.aws_ses.CfnConfigurationSet.SuppressionOptionsProperty.html#suppressedreasons.
Thanks for volunteering for contribution. Looking forward to it!
