EC2: Don't enable firstboot_pkgs in small flavour
The EC2 "base" flavour installs the devel/py-awscli package at boot time by default; we don't do this in the "small" flavour, so the default behaviour was to update the FreeBSD-ports repository and then do nothing with it. Turn off firstboot_pkgs by default; if someone is using the "small" flavour of AMIs and wants to install packages at instance launch time, they simply need to add 'firstboot_pkgs_enable="YES"' to /etc/rc.conf (which they must already be editing via user-data, in order to provide the list of packages they want installed). Sponsored by: Amazon MFC after: 3 days MFC to: stable/15 Relnotes: EC2 "small" images now have firstboot_pkgs_enable="NO".
