The "toCloudFormation" method of generated CFN resources invoke "resolve" so that any lazy tokens are evaluated. This escaped the global settings set by `findTokens` which collect tokens so they can be reported as references by `StackElement.prepare`. To solve this, findTokens now accepts a function instead of an object and basically just wraps it's invocation with settings that will collect all tokens resolved within that scope. Not an ideal solution but simple enough. This was not discovered because we didn't have any tests that validated the behavior of the generated CFN resources (they are not accessible from the @aws-cdk/cdk library). We add a unit test in the IAM library to cover this case.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
This now assumes that resolve() will always be called in the callback, which is not always true. Better to use resolve(fn()), catches both cases.
