LaunchMode

How to launch a node. SPOT requests spot-market capacity (interruptible, cheaper). RESERVED is an on-demand launch the operator knows is covered by a standing reservation — the AWS run-instances call is identical to ON_DEMAND; the difference is billing + a node cap on the tier (AutoManager-side). So the daemon only special-cases SPOT.
