docs/news: reflect EC2 image changes in the RHEL-8.5 images note
The `ami` image type was redefined based on the official RHEL EC2 images. In addition, two new image types `ec2` and `ec2-ha` were defined. These new image types are by default not exposed via Weldr API. Update the docs/news/unreleased entry related to RHEL-8.5 main images to reflect these changes.

## RHEL-8.5 AWS images
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The `ami` image type have been redefined based on the official RHEL EC2 images.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Notable changes compared to RHEL-8.4 are:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- the default user created by cloud-init is `ec2-user`
|
||||||
|
- NTP client configuration uses `169.254.169.123` NTP server by default
|
||||||
|
- the boot mode was changed from hybrid to legacy only
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The `ec2` and `ec2-ha` images represent the official RHEL EC2 images, which are
|
||||||
|
produced as part of RHEL release. These contain RHUI client packages, which are
|
||||||
|
available only from within Red Hat internal network. For this reason, these
|
||||||
|
image types are by default not exposed via Weldr API (in the on-premise use
|
||||||
|
case) for all RHEL releases.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This default configuration can be overridden by placing the following line in
|
||||||
|
the osbuild-composer configuration `/etc/osbuild-composer/osbuild-composer.toml`:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```toml
|
||||||
|
[weldr_api.distros."rhel-*"]
|
||||||
|
# no lines below this section
|
||||||
|
```

||||||
