[PR] NIFI-15535 - Fixed AWS Connection Pool Shutdown on EKS with STS Credential Refresh [nifi]

   # Summary
   
   NIFI-15535 - Fixed AWS Connection Pool Shutdown on EKS with STS Credential Refresh
   
   Fixed `java.lang.IllegalStateException: Connection pool shut down` affecting AWS processors (SQS, S3, etc.) on EKS with pod-level identity. The issue occurs when STS temporary credentials expire and the internal HTTP connection pool used for credential refresh has been garbage collected by the JVM Finalizer thread.
   
   The `AWSCredentialsProviderControllerService` cached a single `AwsCredentialsProvider` instance created during `@OnEnabled`. On EKS, this resolves to a `DefaultCredentialsProvider` whose internal chain creates an `StsClient` with its own `ApacheHttpClient` and `PoolingHttpClientConnectionManager`. The JVM's Finalizer thread can shut down these internal connection pools (confirmed in logs by `[Finalizer] Connection manager is shutting down` entries). While cached STS credentials remain valid (~1h), requests succeed. Once credentials expire, the STS refresh call fails because its HTTP pool was already shut down.
   
   This is a documented AWS SDK V2 behavior: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-java/latest/developer-guide/troubleshooting.html#faq-connection-pool-shutdown-exception
   
   The prior fix for NIFI-12836 (commit `02cbe199260`) changed `DefaultCredentialsProvider.create()` to `.builder().build()` to avoid the singleton, but the provider was still cached as a single shared instance in the controller service, leaving it vulnerable to GC finalization of internal SDK objects.
