Update CentOS 6 base AMI.

Using the community CentOS AMI and updating to kernel-lt using the packer
pipeline we have is causing issues with the root volume resizing. Based on the
consensus the dev. team arrived at, this commit updates the base AMI by manually
deriving it from ami-9ff841e5 - the last-known AMI to have had kernel-lt working
well with growroot. The manual update included --- moving to the latest 4.x
kernel-lt, installing ENA driver, adding necessary grub commandline arguments to
grub.conf, and cleaning up temporary state and files.

Although not used for this AMI update, packer_update_centos_base.json has been
fixed to handle root volume resizing for future releases.
