A factory function to construct an object of typeIAMConnection.
The returned connection object should not be used directly; instead it should be passed as an argument to the constructor ofIAMClient.
The optionaloptionsargument may be used to configure aspects of the returnedIAMConnection. Expected options are any of the types in the following option lists:
