Elastic Transcoder Preset: MaxFrameRate defaults to 30, but shouldn't.

[tecnobrat]

When using a aws_elastictranscoder_preset we want to be able to set "FrameRate" to a static frame rate, and not use MaxFrameRate.

According to the AWS docs, this is accomplished by simply not passing MaxFrameRate. However terraform defaults MaxFrameRate to 30:

terraform/builtin/providers/aws/resource_aws_elastic_transcoder_preset.go

Lines 213 to 218 in 351c6be

	"max_frame_rate": &schema.Schema{
	Type: schema.TypeString,
	Default: "30",
	Optional: true,
	ForceNew: true,
	},

This causes the following API error on apply:

* aws_elastictranscoder_preset.desktop_video: Error creating Elastic Transcoder Preset: ValidationException: When you specify a value for MaxFrameRate, you must also specify 'FrameRate':'Auto'. Either change the value of FrameRate or remove the MaxFrameRate object, and resubmit the request.
	status code: 400, request id: f70b50ff-a1e7-11e6-8ba6-0f0748938856

MaxFrameRate will default to 30 if you do not pass a value, according to the AWS docs. So terraform does not need to enforce this setting to be default of 30.

I just ran into this as well (with v0.8.2). It makes it impossible to create a preset with a constant FrameRate.
