ec2-ami-tools has hard coded location list

[Scott Moser]

ec2-ami-tools has a hard coded list of locations and regions.
This is silly, and makes a new release of the tools required for using something as simple as ec2-upload-bundle.

I've put a patch into the ppa version at lp:~aws-tools-dev/ubuntu/precise/ec2-ami-tools that hopefully addresses this, but test is needed at the moment.
