Arian van Putten 494442762c amazon-ssm-agent: remove overrideEtc parameter
This was meant to make amazon-ssm-agent work "out of the box" on non-NixOS
systems but the feature never really worked.

The problem is that amazon-ssm-agent looks for the files "amazon-ssm-agent.json"
and "seelog.xml" but the files in the package are named
"amazon-ssm-agent.json.template" and "seelog.xml.template". So even with
this overrideEtc = true it would not be able to find the config.

E.g. you'd get an error like

Error occurred fetching the seelog config file path:  open /nix/store/pyfxjr0i0hszcj9b6fqly6344zf9zhcb-amazon-ssm-agent-3.3.484.0/etc/amazon/ssm/seelog.xml: no such file or directory
on startup.

Removing this parameter from the from the package doesn't break things as it didn't work in the first place.
