Sometimes the AWS API responds that it can't find a newly created
instance if you poll it too soon after creation. Retry a few times
to be sure it really hasn't been created.
Enabling discards for disk can greatly minimize disk size then user
inside vm use fstrim command or trim/discard unneded blocks.

This adds retry logic to the amazon/chroot builder. The builder
intermittently fails when ec2conn shows the volume in the attached
state but calling Volumes[0].Attachments return an empty array. The
fix adds a retry logic for when Volumes[0].Attachments has len 0 sleep
for 2 seconds and retry up to 30 times.
When the Volumes[0].Attachments is empty I find within 5 seconds the
Volumes[0].Attachments contains the correct value.

This commit moves the Amazon builders of Packer away from the Hashicorp
fork of the goamz library to the official AWS SDK for Go, in order that
third party plugins may depend on the more complete official library
more easily.
Relates to #1539
AWS is eventually consistent and instance can be not visibile for
some time after creation. This fix eliminates describe-instances
call before going to the proper wait loop
