[Bug 732953] [NEW] can_connect function inside ec2.rb always return false

[Juan L. Negron]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: facter

the can_connect function in ec2.rb always return false.
I modified the code as follows and it seems to have fixed the issue:
Before (Line 9 in ec2.rb):  Timeout::timeout(wait_sec) {open(ip, port)}
After: Timeout::timeout(wait_sec) {open("http://#{ip}:#{port}/latest/meta-data")}

After that change, the module seems to work properly in EC2 instances.
