    Permit Temp keys and named SSH keypairs · 9d097f9d

    These changes permit the use of pre-created SSH keypairs with AWS. If
    so, the configuration for the builder needs to include an
    ssh_keypair_name option and a ssh_private_key_file.
    
    If ssh_private_key_file is *not* defined, it'll go through the
    rigamarole of creating a temporary keypair. The ssh_keypair_name option
    by itself won't make that change, because it doesn't make sense to
    specify a keypair but not tell packer where the private key is, but it
    does happen that you could have a private key and the public-key is
    "baked in", and not part of your EC2 account.
