Description

Currently the [documentation](https://developer.hashicorp.com/packer/integrations/hashicorp/amazon/latest/components/builder/ebs) for `run_tags` states:

> `run_tags` (map[string]string) - Key/value pair tags to apply to the generated key-pair, security group, iam profile and role, snapshot, network interfaces and instance that is launched to create the EBS volumes. **_The resulting AMI will also inherit these tags._** This is a [template engine](https://developer.hashicorp.com/packer/docs/templates/legacy_json_templates/engine), see [Build template data](https://developer.hashicorp.com/packer/integrations/hashicorp/amazon/latest/components/builder/ebs#build-template-data) for more information.

[Emphasis added.]

This should probably clarify that there exists a parameter to override the behavior, e.g.: "The resulting AMI will also inherit these tags, unless `skip_ami_run_tags` is set `true`."
