panic: runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference in serviceQuotaFetcher

We are running v0.10.0 in EKS on Amazon Linux 2 nodes and the exporter is crashing from time to time with the following error on serviceQuotaFetcher:

Hello, I had a look but sadly can't reproduce the issue in my local environment. I also checked the logs of our current deployment (in case we missed something) but couldn't find a similar error.

It looks like it received an unexpected value. Would you be able to run

aws service-quotas list-service-quotas --service-code rds

...when you receive this error and share with us the values of the following codes:

L-7B6409FD // DB instances
L-7ADDB58A // Total storage for all DB instances
L-272F1212 // Manual DB instance snapshots

Hi,

A new version 0.10.1 has been released to fix this panic 🙏

You probably have an other issue as this panic was happening if prometheus-rds-exporter was failing to fetch some quota from AWS, but with the new version you should see the error message properly in the logs to fix this issue 🤞
