AWS Doc DB: Global AWS document DB support

[pulkit0512]

Describe the feature

Currently using CDK we can only create regional AWS document DBs. Whereas AWS CLI provides the feature of creating document DB global clusters as well. Can we have a similar feature via CDK like what we today have for Aurora RDS global clusters.

Use Case

Creating AWS document DB in multiple regions with cross-region replication.

Proposed Solution

Having below parameters in CfnDBCluster for DocDB

/**
* If you are configuring an global database cluster and want your Document DB cluster to be a secondary member in the global database cluster, specify the global cluster ID of the global database cluster.
*/
globalClusterIdentifier?: string;

/**
* The AWS Region which contains the source DB cluster when replicating a DB cluster. For example, us-east-1 .
*/
sourceRegion?: string;

I guess we are still pending aws-cloudformation/cloudformation-coverage-roadmap#1956

please make sure to add 👍 on the cfn coverage roadmap issue to help the CFN team prioritize. As soon as CFN ships this support, CDK would be able to include that as well.
