Creating a FIFO queue with suffix .fifo is prohibited, because CreateQueue won't accept the queue name:

An error occurred (InvalidParameterValue) when calling the CreateQueue operation: Can only include alphanumeric characters, hyphens, or underscores. 1 to 80 in length

It seems to be missing in the documentation that --attributes "FifoQueue=true" must be set and raised issues like localstack/localstack#1063

Thanks for the docs contribution 🚀

I've left a suggestion about the wording of the instruction. IMO we should be explicit that both the .fifo suffix and FifoQueue=true attribute are necessary for the creation of a FIFO queue.

IMO this is a slightly confusing aspect of the AWS API so adding a distinction in our docs is a great idea 👍
