Tagging resources

[Guslington]

I think there needs to be functionality in highlander core to manage tagging on an individual resource level through configuration.

My example is say the ecs template has a Name tag of Name: ${Environment}-ecs-xx but i want that to be Name: ${Environment}-${cluster}-ecs-xx. We could build that functionality into the template but i feel it would be something we'd repeat in a lot of templates.

Some example config for setting tags

Tags:
  Project: myApp # Tag is added to all resources that can have tags
  EcsAsg: # Resource Name
    Name: 
      Sub: ${Environment}-${Cluster}-ecs-xx

Also the ability to set global tags across all resources that could contain tags would be a good thing to have as well. However that maybe a difficult task as not all cloudformation resources use the Tag property to declare tags

@Guslington in it's simplest form it is possible to read resource definition file downloaded by cfndsl and check wether resource being rendered supports Tag property.
