Added the TAGS_TO_COPY configuration parameter.

Added the possibility to specify a list of tag keys that must be copied
from the instance to the snapshots created.

Hey @rastandy - Nice addition you've created here.

I'm just curious, has it been tested and confirmed as working? I keep getting errors such as the following:

• module.ebs_bckup.var.TAGS_TO_COPY: variable TAGS_TO_COPY in module ebs_bckup should be type list, got string

I've tried adding the following to variable definition, but no luck: (type = "list")

Thanks!

EDIT: Knew it, as soon as I asked, I found the fix! I simply set TAGS_TO_COPY to a list of strings, instead of pointing to variables.tf.

Original:
TAGS_TO_COPY = "${join(",", var.TAGS_TO_COPY)}"

Became:
TAGS_TO_COPY = ["Name", "CostCenter", "JIRA"]

Hi @Mistawes,

Yes, exactly. The TAGS_TO_COPY variable is supposed to be of type "list".
Guess I should make it explicit in the variable description.

Thanks for having tried it.
