The goal is to be able to explicitely set which AMI to use for the runner module, just like it's already the case with the fleeting module.

use case 1 : use a custom image with pre-installed toolings

use case 2 : control when to rollout of a new runner manager instance . Especially useful in a production environment when new images need to be tested before rolling out to production. Currently, the module is using the latest ubuntu 20.04 image available, which is causing drifts.
