Having the Amazon ECS Agent packaged up would improve container experience for users in AWS #165

https://github.com/aws/amazon-ecs-agent needs to be packaged up in a way that we can roll out an AWS ECS specific atomichost image; this would allow users on AWS ECS serivice to better normalise their CentOS Atomic Host experience with the in platform integrations provided in AWS.

IIRC they were also looking at (super-privileged) containerizing this. It's likely worth filing an issue upstream.

The readme at https://github.com/aws/amazon-ecs-agent references running this as a container on any image that includes docker. We could just drop in a systemd unit file via cloud-init, and that ought to work.

There's an RPM for this here: https://github.com/aws/amazon-ecs-init

I tried this out today, I used the "other linux" directions from https://github.com/aws/amazon-ecs-agent/blob/master/README.md, had to add --privileged and my --env=ECS_CLUSTER= to the run line, but then it worked fine.
