Description

When configuring a new cloud, my only option is "EBS Optimized".  And the drive I get is "gp3".  That is not enough. I would like the option to specify provisioned IOPS SSD volumes like "io1" and "io2" with the provisioned speeds.

Research direction

Start by locating the EC2 cloud configuration and EBS volume provisioning code in the plugin, then inspect how the current gp3 volume choice and EBS Optimized setting are represented. The work is done when users can select io1 or io2 volumes and configure their provisioned IOPS during cloud setup.
