AWS Infrastructure Provider

THis module provides two major items:

• A set of providers for various AWS services within the mintpress infrastructure framework

• A set of resources for performing operations directly on the AWS platform, which are generated from the AWS api documentation

The following types are currently implemented as mintpress infrastructure providers:

• EC2Host - VM host on the EC2 platform

• EbsStorage - Block Storage on the EBS platform

• Route53Dns - DnsEntry provider for the Route53 platform

• KmsVaultEntry - VaultEntry provider based on the KMS platform and credstash

• EfsNasShare - NasShare provider based on the Efs platform

More are to be implemented as more AWS services are supported as generic infrastructure options.
