Support $BROWSER envar

[kyoh86]

Describe the feature

I want the BROWSER variable to be referenced when opening the browser with a command such as aws sso login.

Use Case

We use wslview to open our browser in WSL.
However, there are many packages that easily install xdg-open as a dependency even though it is not available in WSL.
I don't want such xdg-open which does not work, to be called, so I set the BROWSER environment variable to "wslview" for various tools, but the AWS CLI ignores this.

Proposed Solution

I would like the following solution.

• Refer to the BROWSER environment variable
• Be able to specify the browser command to be used in the AWS CLI configuration file

Other Information

No response
