Feature Request : Function for returning all supported resource types for a given action

[rams3sh]

It would be great if there is a module / function which can return supported resources for a given action.
Currently based on my search there is no easily consumable json from where one can get the supported resource types for an action. The details are currently spread across various AWS articles.

However , IAM policy simulator has this data as part of it's code but this can be accessed only post authentication into AWS.

One possible use case of this feature would be to identify if a given policy with a set of actions is practically valid for a given set of resources / resource types.

PS. I gathered this json with dirty curl based script from IAM Policy Simulator for solving my problem. Thought this feature will fit great as part of policyuniverse, hence raising this feature request.
Link for the json here : https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rams3sh/MyFileStore/master/IamSimulator_extract.json

There are also other keys which are part of this json which also might contribute to multiple other features. Since my use case was very limited to actions and resources, restricting the request to the same.

I've been working on this on a private fork and already have the data in place. It will take some time to make this robust, but if the Netflix team is interested over the next little while I'll likely start by augmenting the data.json file with the resource data. Then the functions can be added after that.
