Refactor #8348: Fingerprinting should be it's own action

# Overview #

In order to quickly launch N systems, then install Puppet on those N systems it 
would be better to support launching in parallel rather than sequentially.

With the current create action implementation, the action can only launch one 
node at a time and it waits for the node's SSH host key to become available in 
the AWS console to compare it to the host key of the system.

Based on a discussion on dev@ this could be separated to it's own action with 
the additional feature of adding the SSH host key to the known_hosts file.

# Suggested Use Case #

I think so.  I'm thinking:

puppet <subcommand> fingerprint i-f08e6e91

or

puppet <subcommand> fingerprint --no-knownhosts i-f08e6e91

So I think it should be the documented default behavior to add the host key to 
the personal known hosts file, but we give the end user the option to only 
print the key to standard output.
