The list of EC2 instance types known to Checkmk now contains the types AWS currently offers, among them the c8, m8, r8, c9, m9, r9, i7i, i8ge, x8i, g7 and p6 families.

Before this change, the service "AWS/EC2 Limits" reported the state UNKNOWN with the summary "Unknown resource 'running_ondemand_instances_<type>'" for running on-demand instances of these types, and the types could not be selected in the rule "AWS/EC2 Limits".
