Reaper Lambda

This lambda function:

•Finds all instances in the selected region(s)

•Ensures all instances are tagged with "expiration_date" of "never" or with an integer (epoch time).

•Terminates any instances without an expiration_date

•Terminates any instances past their expiration date

Yes, this will blow up your AWS account if instances are not tagged!

Notes

•This may not work in large AWS accounts. For this reason I've split it out by region - you may specify a smaller array of regions at the top. If your account is exceptionally large, it would be a very minor effort to add an additional for loop that iterates over each VPC in a region. Feel free to add a PR!

•We use epoch time because integers are easy to compare and I'm lazy. Deal with it or fix it in your own environment :)

•If you tag your instance with an expiration_date that causes a ValueError, I don't think I've handled that properly. Please don't be manually tagging your stuff. We have terraform and cloudformation for this, people!
