[StarCluster] EBS optimized and enhanced networking

[Rayson Ho]

I added support for EBS optimized instances last year at Scalable Logic,
but we are using a fork of StarCluster that is customized for our
environment. I will check & see if I can clean it up and release it to the
open source version of StarCluster.

For enhanced networking, StarCluster added support for it for a while - as
long as you have the right AMI type (HVM), running on the right instance
type (eg. i2, c3, and the more recently added r3), and the NIC driver, and
the instances are in VPCs, then you can get the benefit of enhanced
networking.
