        .EXAMPLE
            Set-R53Record -Domain mypowershell.space -Type A -Name www -Value 1.2.3.4 -TTL 300
            Create an A record to point www.mypowershell.space to IP 1.2.3.4. TTL set to 5 minutes.
        .EXAMPLE

            Create an A record to point mail.mypowershell.space to IP 1.2.3.4. TTL set to 60 minutes and has an optional comment.
        .EXAMPLE
            Set-R53Record -Domain mypowershell.space -Type TXT -Name _amazonses -Value "G3LNeKkT8eYmQLeyAp" -Comment "confirm domain ownership"
            Create a TXT record to set _amazonses.mypowershell.space to "G3LNeKkT8eYmQLeyAp" and confirm domain ownership. Will use default TTL (300) and no comment.
        .PARAMETER Domain
            Defines a the Domain name of the domain which DNS zone is to be edited E.g.:
            1. mypowershell.space
            2. amazon.com
            3. google.com.
            4. facebook.com.
        .PARAMETER Type
            Defines a type of a DNS record: A, TXT, MX, CNAME, NS, SOA, AAAA Or PTR
            Most likely won't support all. If you mod the script and add functionality, let me know!
        .PARAMETER Name
            Defines a name of a DNS record: www, mail, intranet, dev...
            If Not specified or it is the same as the domain name or it is "@", the root domain record will be updated
        .PARAMETER Value
            Defines a value of DNS record:
            1. 192.168.0.1
            2. "ZTJGIJ4OIJS9J3560S"
        Bear in mind which record type is numerical and which textual!
        .PARAMETER TTL
            Defines a TTL of DNS record. I shouldn't really need to explain this :-)
            Not mandatory, defaults to 300.
        .PARAMETER Comment
            Defines an optional R53 comment.
            Not mandatory, not included if not explicitly defined.
