I'd like to snapshot EC2 volumes only when needed.  I couldn't find an
easy solution that didn't require calling out to boto or other tools.
If it exists, please ignore the following :)  I wanted to ask here
before opening a feature or pull request.

It could look like this:

- local_action:
    module: ec2_snapshot
    region: "{{ region }}"
    instance_id: "{{ id }}"
    device_name: "{{ device }}"
    snapshot_tags:
        SnapshotCreator: ansible
        Host: "{{ server }}"
        Device: "{{ device }}"
    # new feature, using the snapshot_tags to determine current state
    # currently it's "always"
    state: present|absent|always

Does this make sense? Currently it's not available but could be
implemented in a backwards compatible way if the default state was
"always."

Thanks
Ted
