…eue or ITopic instead of using instanceof tests. Prevent custom IQueue implementations of not being set as DeadLetterTargets of Pipes.

Issue # (if applicable)

Closes #34812

Reason for this change

If you create a custom class implementing IQueue or ITopic and try to use it as a DeadLetterTarget of a Pipe DynamoDbStreamSource, it is ignored as the calls to instanceof Queue or Topic fail. Its because IQueue and ITopic are interfaces and not base classes. If I have class TestQueue implements IQueue {...}, doing (if obj instanceof Queue) will always fail.

Description of changes

Instead of testing if its a Queue or Topic with instanceof, since the construct parameters accept IQueue or ITopic, we need to test if the provided object implements IQueue or ITopic.

With the changes provided, as the unit tests show, you can give any object implementing either IQueue or ITopic interfaces and it will be used as a DeadLetterTarget of DynamoDBStream.

Describe any new or updated permissions being added

None.

Description of how you validated changes

All unit tests are passing. I haven't modified any unit test, only added two new that prove that the IQueue or ITopic are used as DeadLetterTarget and we also test that grantPublish or grantSendMessages are appropriately called.

Your pull request must be based off of a branch in a personal account (not an organization owned account, and not the main branch). You must also have the setting enabled that allows the CDK team to push changes to your branch (this setting is enabled by default for personal accounts, and cannot be enabled for organization owned accounts). The reason for this is that our automation needs to synchronize your branch with our main after it has been approved, and we cannot do that if we cannot push to your branch.
