Use TagSpecification parameter on EC2 create_node
## Take advantage of AWS EC2 tag-on-create feature
### Description
This small patch changes the way EC2 compute nodes are tagged when created,
by adding the tags on the creation call instead of doing it immediately after.
This avoids eventual consistency issues that sometimes happen when an instance
isn't created yet so it can't be tagged.
For reference, the AWS docs are here:
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/APIReference/API_RunInstances.html
This PR would tackle a colleague of mine has reported some weeks ago:

> While LIBCLOUD-690 is a real bug, it'd be moot if things were done correctly
> with the tagging metadata being provided to the AWS RunInstances call where
> it could be applied atomically with the creation of the node. The current
> style of doing it in two separate calls allows for a window where nodes can
> get created without their associated tags, making accounting for them much
> more difficult.
