Research direction

The issue only identifies the Jenkins ec2-plugin and the configureClouds tab; no source file, test, or API entry point is named. Start by locating the cloud configuration handling for the EC2 plugin and determine how remote updates are currently exposed. Done means documenting or implementing a supported way to update the instance AMI ID remotely.
