Issue #, if available:
Kind of #108

Description of changes:
Added a new template named SecretsManagerRDSMySQLRotationSingleUserRetainPassword.

This template uses superuser secret to login to the MySQL (RDS) server and rotates a single user's password, while retaining its previous password, so that there is no time window where the secret's current version does not work for connecting to the database, hence no downtime without the need to clone users.

MySQL Dual Passwords documentation can be seen here: https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/password-management.html#dual-passwords

Since APPLICATION_PASSWORD_ADMIN permission is required to be able to use the RETAIN CURRENT PASSWORD clause (even when it is for the user's own password), using superuser secret sounded better for this flow. So this template is kind of a mix of MultiUser and SingleUser templates.
