Update documentation for autoscaling on AWS

Steve Xuereb - Out of Office Back 2024-06-16 requested to merge docs/3222-gitlab-runner-with-docker-machine-can-t-spawn-runners into master

What does this MR do?

  • Specify that the availability zone needs to be set
  • Make it more clear the user has to specify a security group or nothing at all.
  • Add a tip to read driver documentation first

Why was this MR needed?

In #3222 (closed) users are having issues when trying to set up gitlab runner autoscale on aws, which is mostly due to some missing documentation, this is the first MR to rectify that. #3222 (comment 126924393) explains the issue, and #3222 (comment 129064926) confirms from docker-machine documentation.

Are there points in the code the reviewer needs to double check?

Does this MR meet the acceptance criteria?

  • Documentation created/updated
  • [-] Added tests for this feature/bug
  • [-] In case of conflicts with master - branch was rebased

What are the relevant issue numbers?

Closes #3222 (closed)
