Fischer Jemison a5ec3f7f55 Use a shorter timeout for AWS EC2 metadata requests (#1089)
* Use a shorter timeout for AWS EC2 metadata requests

Fix #1088 

According to the docs, the value for `timeout` is in seconds: https://docs.python.org/3/library/urllib.request.html#urllib.request.urlopen. 1000 seconds seems slow and in some cases can block the startup of the program being instrumented (see #1088 as an example), because the request will hang indefinitely in non-AWS environments. Using a much shorter 1 second timeout seems like a reasonable workaround for this.

* add changelog entry for timeout change

* use 5s timeout for ECS and EKS, update changelog
