Description
### Name of the resource
AWS::EC2::Instance
### Description
According to this [AWS news article](https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2022/01/instance-tags-amazon-ec2-instance-metadata-service/), it is now possible to make Instance Tags available to the EC2 Instance Metadata service. This feature is not enabled by default, but there is an option to enable it when creating a new EC2 Instance in the console.
The AWS::EC2::Instance specification should allow for an attribute to enable Instance Tags from the CloudFormation stack template.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reading the linked AWS news article and the AWS::EC2::Instance resource specification to understand the available option for exposing instance tags through Instance Metadata Service. Done means the CloudFormation resource supports configuring that option in a stack template; the issue does not name implementation files or tests.
