Add support for GitHub as Source provider

[RobReus]

In addition to S3, and the newly added CodeCommit source providers, I would like to see GitHub be added too for those of us using GitHub instead.

You should be able to select "GitHub" in the CodePipelineSource parameter, and then have a choice if you want to "Poll" or if you want a "Webhook" to be created. A parameter for the GitHub token secret should also be added.

@RobReus Thanks for the request. We will add this to the backlog for a future release.

Can we move this along? Fortune 500 companies for the most part don't want to use CodeCommit. They want to use their own source control system

What's the status on this?

Enterprises benefit the most from Control Tower, however, they prefer Github for repo management!

Looks like codecommmit has been recently deprecated so this is even more important now: https://repost.aws/questions/QUshILm0xbTjWJZSD8afYVgA/codecommit-cannot-create-a-repository#ANa5lXt9nwSiGyN8fGlmOA-Q
