v1.6.3 Release

The most important change in this release is a fix for #1008, the CNI pod crashloopbackoff due to incorrect instance metadata while fetching ENI issue, fixed in PR #1011.

Note! If you edit an existing v1.5.x CNI deployment, make sure to mount /var/run/dockershim.sock correctly!

Changes since v1.6.2

• Bug - Handle stale instance metadata (#1011, @mogren)
• Improvement - Add support for c5a and c5ad (#1003, @mogren)
• Improvement - Make the aws-cni-support.sh executable (#1007, @jayanthvn)
