Title: support empty metric dimension, allow passing through AWS credentials

Thanks for the awesome Nagios script! I made a few things I would call improvements to work for us:

* don't pass along empty --dimension value (necessary to retrieve aggregated metrics)
* allow passing extra arguments to mon-get-data, such as AWS access credentials
* don't fully qualify mon-get-data path, as that is system specific and can be handled better with $PATH
* only source cloudwatch.sh if it actually exists
* minor README.txt cleanup
* remove commented out line (this is in version control, after all)
