AWS auth backend takes in PKCS#7 signature of an AWS EC2 instance and a client
created nonce to authenticates the EC2 instance with Vault.

Authentication is backed by a preconfigured association of AMIs to Vault's policies
through 'image/<ami_id>' endpoint. All the instances that are using this AMI will
get the policies configured on the AMI.

If there is need to further restrict the policies set on the AMI, 'role_tag' option
can be enabled on the AMI and a tag can be generated using 'image/<ami_id>/roletag'
endpoint. This tag represents the subset of capabilities set on the AMI. When the
'role_tag' option is enabled on the AMI, the login operation requires that a respective
role tag is attached to the EC2 instance that is performing the login.
