Allow disabling the default Security Group @ento (#160)

what

This PR adds a new variable, security_group_enabled (default: true), that lets you disable the creation of aws_security_group.ecs_service

Currently there is no way to disable the creation of aws_security_group.ecs_service, even if you disable its security group rules through var.enable_all_egress_rule, var.enable_icmp_rule, var.use_alb_security_group, and var.use_nlb_cidr_blocks.
In my case, I wanted to use my own security group by specifying its id in var.security_group_ids. Not being able to disable the creation of aws_security_group.ecs_service led to clutter in the list of security groups in AWS console and potential confusion as to which ones were actually used
It would also be an option to not create aws_security_group.ecs_service when no security group rules would be created, but I thought it better to have an explicit variable for controlling it
