If you apply `wait=yes` and use `instance_tags` as your filter for
stopping/starting EC2 instances, this stack trace happens:
```

That's because the `instance_ids` variable is None if not supplied
in the task. That means the instances that result from the instance_tags
query aren't going to be included in the wait loop. To fix this, a list
needs to be kept of instances with matching tags and that list needs to
be added to `instance_ids` before the wait loop.
* Ensure unicode characters in zip-compressed filenames work correctly
Another corner-case we are fixing hoping it doesn't break anything else.
This fixes:
- The correct encoding of unicode paths internally (so the filenames we scrape from the output and is returned by zipfile match)
- Disable LANG=C for the unzip command (because it breaks the unicode output, unlike on gtar)
* Fix for python3 and other suggestions from @abadger
Before this, all spot instance requests would fail because the code
_always_ called module.fail_json when the parameter was set (which it
always was, because the module parameter's default was set to 'stop').
As the comment said, this parameter doesn't make sense for spot
instances at all, so the error message was also misleading.
* fixes issue where configuration was not being loaded (#4704)
* fixes issue where defaults were not included when argument was set to True
tested on EOS 4.15.4F
When the configuration is compared and the results deserialized, the
dumps() function returns a string. This cohereces the return to a list
in case before and/or after needs to be applied
fixes 4707
* fixes save argument to be type bool
* now properly sets the changed returned flag based on diff
* updates docstring RETURNS to add backup_path
* removes unneeded state argument
tested on EOS 4.15.4F
