Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

If a pod has the annotation aws.amazon.com/cloudwatch-agent-ignore: true it should be ignored by the amazon-cloudwatch-agent and logs/metrics should not be pushed to cloudwatch for that pod.

Any update on this? I had a call with AWS SA's about this a while back and they mentioned it was being looked at.
