Support for backup SKU list for VMs in AWS

Public clouds can sometimes run out of capacity for a specific EC2 instance type (“primary SKU”). If the primary VM configuration is not available, then the VM cannot start resulting in loss of time and business disruption. 

With this feature, in the AWS virtualization environment, you can provide a list of backup EC2 instance types (“Backup SKUs”) using PowerShell that MCS can fallback to in case of capacity-related issues.
