A "Layer" is a particular service that forms part of the infrastructure for
a set of applications. Some layers are application servers and others are
pure infrastructure, like MySQL servers or load balancers.
Although the AWS API only has one type called "Layer", it actually has
a number of different "soft" types that each have slightly different
validation rules and extra properties that are packed into the Attributes
map.
To make the validation rule differences explicit in Terraform, and to make
the Terraform structure more closely resemble the OpsWorks UI than its
API, we use a separate resource type per layer type, with the common code
factored out into a shared struct type.
"Stack" is the root concept in OpsWorks, and acts as a container for a number
of different "layers" that each provide some service for an application.
A stack isn't very interesting on its own, but it needs to be created before
any layers can be created.
AWS provides three different ways to create AMIs that each have different
inputs, but once they are complete the same management operations apply.
Thus these three resources each have a different "Create" implementation
but then share the same "Read", "Update" and "Delete" implementations.

This is an iteration on the great work done by @dalehamel in PRs #2095
and #2109.
The core team went back and forth on how to best model Spot Instance
Requests, requesting and then rejecting a separate-resource
implementation in #2109.
After more internal discussion, we landed once again on a separate
resource to model Spot Instance Requests. Out of respect for
@dalehamel's already-significant donated time, with this I'm attempting
to pick up the work to take this across the finish line.
Important architectural decisions represented here:
* Spot Instance Requests are always of type "persistent", to properly
match Terraform's declarative model.
* The spot_instance_request resource exports several attributes that
are expected to be constantly changing as the spot market changes:
spot_bid_status, spot_request_state, and instance_id. Creating
additional resource dependencies based on these attributes is not
recommended, as Terraform diffs will be continually generated to keep
up with the live changes.
* When a Spot Instance Request is deleted/canceled, an attempt is made
to terminate the last-known attached spot instance. Race conditions
dictate that this attempt cannot guarantee that the associated spot
instance is terminated immediately.
Implementation notes:
* This version of aws_spot_instance_request borrows a lot of common
code from aws_instance.
* In order to facilitate borrowing, we introduce `awsInstanceOpts`, an
internal representation of instance details that's meant to be shared
between resources. The goal here would be to refactor ASG Launch
Configurations to use the same struct.
* The new aws_spot_instance_request acc. test is passing.
* All aws_instance acc. tests remain passing.
