Describe the feature

MachineImage.from_ssm_parameter(parameter_name=....) doesn't support cross-account parameters. You cannot provide an ARN. I believe the module should support fetching of AMI ID from shared SSM parameters.

Use Case

It's very likely to publish SSM parameters with AMI ID from a centralised account, when creating new EC2 instances MachineImage.from_ssm_parameter(parameter_name=....) should support the lookup of them.

Yes it makes sense. aws-ssm actually supports cross-account sharing but I am not sure if MachineImage allows you to specify that. We need more experiment with that so any further inputs here is welcome and appreciated.

Making this a p2, please help us prioritize with 👍 .
