James E. Blair fc2d0ba4b8 Add EBS direct image upload to AWS
This adds a third (!) method of uploading images to AWS.  It uploads
blocks directly to an EBS snapshot.  It bypasses S3 which makes it
faster and more efficient, but it may incur additional costs, so it
does not replace the existing less-costly options.

The process is very similar to the existing process used in the Azure
driver, so a new helper abstraction is created that should help
support both drivers.  A later change may update the Azure driver to
use the new abstraction.

The AWS driver now supports optionally uploading diskimages using
the EBS direct APIs. This may be faster and more efficient since
it bypasses S3, but it may incur additional costs.
