Amazon EBS Volume builder should support setting EBS Volume Snapshot Description about packer-plugin-amazon HOT 3 OPEN

Hi @saxonww,

That is a good idea indeed, and this should be reasonably easy to implement!
We probably won't do it too soon though since we're a bit busy with other things right now, but at first glance this should essentially be adding the Description to the CreateImageInput call for create ami, would you be available to open a PR for this? We'd be glad to help if that interests you, please let us know what you think!

Yeah I think so, I'm concerned about getting a good test written - I haven't looked at how to do that - but the rest of it seems easy.

Yeah as far as testing goes this is likely a job for acceptance tests, I suggest you try the feature in your account, and we can write one after that, which we can then run in our account each week (there's a recurring job each Sunday for those).
I can assist when comes time to write the acceptance test, no worries about that!
