proposed patch

The attached patch modifies amazon-ssm-agent's post install script to
optionally log added files to the metalog.  In particular, when installing as
an unprivileged user, this ensures that the ssm-agent's home directory is added
to the metalog manifest.

Sample entries from when I install a modified package into a staging directory:

1413 ./home type=dir mode=0755 uid=0 gid=0                                      
1414 ./home/ssm-user type=dir mode=0755 uid=1001 gid=1001                       
1415 ./home/ssm-user/.mailrc type=file mode=0644 uid=1001 gid=1001              
1416 ./home/ssm-user/.login_conf type=file mode=0644 uid=1001 gid=1001          
1417 ./home/ssm-user/.mail_aliases type=file mode=0600 uid=1001 gid=1001        
1418 ./home/ssm-user/.login type=file mode=0644 uid=1001 gid=1001               
1419 ./home/ssm-user/.profile type=file mode=0644 uid=1001 gid=1001             
1420 ./home/ssm-user/.cshrc type=file mode=0644 uid=1001 gid=1001               
1421 ./home/ssm-user/.shrc type=file mode=0644 uid=1001 gid=1001
