Add sigv4/README.md (#336)
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
I couldn't figure out why sigv4 is a separate Go module, and I imagine
other people might have the same question.

github.com/prometheus/common/sigv4 module
=========================================

sigv4 provides a http.RoundTripper that will sign requests using
Amazon's Signature Verification V4 signing procedure, using credentials
from the default AWS credential chain.

This is a separate module from github.com/prometheus/common to prevent
it from having and propagating a dependency on the AWS SDK.

This module is considered internal to Prometheus, without any stability
guarantees for external usage.
