Add Security Group lookup by name
See original GitHub issueSimilar to SecurityGroup.fromSecurityGroupId(), please add a SecurityGroup.fromSecurityGroupName.
Use Case
There are cases where existing SecurityGroups need to be referenced and have well-known names but not the ids. It would be nice to be able to look up SGs by name. Otherwise, a custom resource and/or SDK is needed to do the lookup.
Proposed Solution
Add a SecurityGroup.fromSecurityGroupName method.
