Support creating and checking on security groups #20

We should support creating security groups in the EC2-Manager. Security groups are basically a way to limit networking access of EC2 instances. Currently, these are done ad-hoc by worker-type maintainers. The goal of this issue is to allow for the management of security groups through the EC2-Manager.

If we manage these security groups in the EC2-Manager itself, we can do interesting things like polling the managed security groups and raising an alert when the security group has been changed from underneath us.

It also makes multi-region support significantly easier as we would only need to speak to one system to ensure the required security groups exist in all regions.
