[Enhancement]: aws_ami_from_instance to tag snapshots as well

[XerXi]

Description

Hello, I am creating an ec2 ami with:

resource "aws_ami_from_instance" "ecc" {
    name                = "somename"
    source_instance_id  = data.aws_instance.ecc.id
    tags = {
        Name            = "somename"
    }
  }
}

However it applies the tags only to the ami itself, while leaving the related ebs snapshot without any tags.

Affected Resource(s) and/or Data Source(s)

aws_ami_from_instance

Potential Terraform Configuration

Have the option to choose "Tag image and snapshots together" with true/false

Looks to be somewhat related to https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform-provider-aws/issues/13493 and possible solution is here : https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform-provider-aws/issues/13493#issuecomment-643548955

However, it would be nice to have an option within the actual resource aws_ami_from_instance to apply snapshot tags

Thing is with "aws_ec2_tag" it adds the tags after the image and snapshots are created, which require you to have rights to tag stuff. For example, in our organization we have divided the resources of various teams by a tag and allow tagging only during creation of an ec2 object, as not to be able to "commandeer" objects of other teams by adding a tag later
