Description

### Summary
Would be great to have the ECS Container Instance, Service and Task Tags to propagate to the container as labels and be able to retrieve the labels from inside the container. Or add the docker daemon labels to the metadata.

### Description
curl $ECS_CONTAINER_METADATA_URI
should display container instance, service and task tags as labels.

Could be used to provide instance specific information to each containers.
