when cluster is being built, generate one-off SSH keys, rather than requiring the user to provide their own SSH keypair
similarly the security group could be a one-off
With the above, the user should only need to provide their AWS credentials, and if they've been using the aws CLI then those would already be available (see #45 ), making initial setup very simple.
This would also make it safer for the cluster creator to share the SSH keys to the cluster with a friend/coworker, as those keys would only be functional for that particular cluster.
