[Platform] Allow specifying SSH username in AWS Cloud Provider #7536

Open streddy-yb opened 3 years ago

streddy-yb commented 3 years ago

Currently Platform allows specifying SSH username only when providing a custom key-pair but it should be allowed even when user is not using a custom key-pair. See #7432 for details.

The UI should also allow a user to specify the username but still let Yugabyte manage the keys. The username could be any number of values from centos, ec2-user, opc, or any other default username a customer may use in their AMI.

Also note the issue Jon mentioned in #7432: "Also, if the AMI being used has a different cloud-init user other than centos, you have to pick customer KeyPair information so the SSH User parameter is exposed. The SSH User parameter should be tied to the AMI, not the KeyPair."
