Maintainer request

If there is any interest in taking up ongoing maintenance for this project, I am open to transferring this to you. I have not made a substantive release of the tool in over a year and have no further roadmap for improvements. Aside from merging the occasional Dependabot PRs, there has been no significant activity since the last release. At this point the code is bit-rotting away and falling behind on updates to go modules and runtime features and could really use some help from someone interested in getting the code and dependencies updated and improving the tool in the future.

I'm sure you're aware of how important this tool is for my team and workplace. I have been thinking about some additional features that might be nice for use cases at my workplace. The chief concern I have is that I'm still just intermediate with Go and I'm not entirely certain that I could do justice to the code. I don't want to see the tool fall into disrepair and fade away.

I'm interested in taking over the maintenance of the aws-runas project. I have previously contributed to the project by fixing a bug related to SAML response parsing (#106), which involved handling cases where the SAML response included additional attributes such as RelayState=xxxx, leading to base64 decoding errors. The fix involved using URL query string parsing, to ensure only the SAMLResponse key-value pair is captured, preventing decoding issues caused by additional characters as you suggested. By this fix it could comply with SAML identity providers other than Microsoft such as AWS SAML.

I believe in the potential of this tool and would be eager to contribute further by updating dependencies, enhancing features, and addressing any outstanding bugs. I’m willing to establish a roadmap for future improvements to ensure the tool continues.

If you're open to it, I'd love to sync up with you to discuss the current state of the project and any guidance you might have as I step into this role. Your insights would be invaluable as I plan the next steps for aws-runas.
