Upgrading to latest version of aws-jdk, Updating Credential properties, Adding Exponential Backoff Retry capability

1. Upgraded to 1.3.22 aws-jdk version
2. Added Exponential Backoff retry mechanism
3. Added checks to make sure cassandra is running before starting Snapshot & Incremental Backups
4. Updated JMXNodeTool to use "Exponential Backoff Retry" rather than "RetryForever"
5. We faced some issues of Token expiration while using IAMCredentials. Hence, added the code change which will use AWSCredentialProvider object directly rather than AWSCredentials itself.
