Title: Allow users to specify the volume type for EC2 volumes (for SSD volumes)

Currently the `ec2_vol` will automatically choose between `io1` (PIOPS) and `standard` (magnetic) volumes, depending on whether the `iops` parameter has been set. EBS now supports a third volume type, `gp2` (SSD).

This pull-request allows the volume type to be explicitly set for a new volume. It it's not specified, the default behaviour is backwards compatible with the current behaviour.
