Add Kinesis streams as Lambda event sources

[nickwareing]

Feature request to be able to do this in Terraform:

Instructions for doing this via the AWS CLI are in step 3.2 of the docs here: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/wt-kinesis-configure-kinesis.html

My current workaroud is to use local-exec. eg.

resource "aws_lambda_function" "my-lambda" {
    .....
    provisioner "local-exec" {
      command = "aws lambda create-event-source-mapping --function-name ${self.function_name} --event-source  ${aws_kinesis_stream.kinesis-mystream.arn} --batch-size 500 --starting-position TRIM_HORIZON"
    }
}

+1 and thanks for the workaround @nick-nz!

I have submitted the above referenced issue (#4089) as the event mapping workaround here seems to not work if IAM access exists between the role and the Lambda function. It bails saying that the mapping is a duplicate, and upon inspection on the console, the mapping is there, albeit disabled with an error.

Correction to the above, it might be a stale mapping due to the need for a workaround. Check out the issue for more details.

#4093 has now been merged, so I'll go ahead and close this issue. It will be in the 0.6.8 release of Terraform. Thanks for bringing this up @nick-nz, and implementing it @vancluever!
