Technical summary
cfn-lint E3510 rejects valid IAM condition operators such as ForAnyValue:StringEqualsIfExists.
Update the IAM condition operator regex/table to accept set operators combined with IfExists variants.
The relevant code path points at the E3510 rule file location and regex patterns, so the fix should update that operator validation source.
The snippet uses native project logic; each parsed IAM condition operator is validated before cfn-lint reports the condition block. The helper result is consumed directly by the patched code path.
After applying the patch, keep the import smoke test for the affected package:
python3 -c "import cfn_lint; print('smoke test OK')"
