[Backport 7.77.x] Detect the correct launch type for ECS Managed Instances when deployed as Daemon

[dd-octo-sts]

Backport 9335d64 from #46947.

---

What does this PR do?

Fixes launch type detection so that tasks on ECS Managed Instances are correctly reported as MANAGED_INSTANCES in workloadmeta when the agent runs in daemon mode.

Motivation

When the agent runs as a daemon on ECS Managed Instances, task and container entities in workloadmeta were not always getting the correct launch type. This change ensures the ECS collector sets LaunchType to ECSLaunchTypeManagedInstances for tasks with LaunchType MANAGED_INSTANCES, for both V1 and V4 metadata parsing.

Describe how you validated your changes

• Deployed the Agent on ECS Managed Instances.
• Confirmed that the correct launch type appears in the agent workload.
• ECS Explorer reports correct launch type:

Explanation

Confidence level: 90.00%
Effect size tolerance: |Δ mean %| ≥ 5.00%

Performance changes are noted in the perf column of each table:

• ✅ = significantly better comparison variant performance
• ❌ = significantly worse comparison variant performance
• ➖ = no significant change in performance

A regression test is an A/B test of target performance in a repeatable rig, where "performance" is measured as "comparison variant minus baseline variant" for an optimization goal (e.g., ingress throughput). Due to intrinsic variability in measuring that goal, we can only estimate its mean value for each experiment; we report uncertainty in that value as a 90.00% confidence interval denoted "Δ mean % CI".

For each experiment, we decide whether a change in performance is a "regression" -- a change worth investigating further -- if all of the following criteria are true:

1. Its estimated |Δ mean %| ≥ 5.00%, indicating the change is big enough to merit a closer look.

2. Its 90.00% confidence interval "Δ mean % CI" does not contain zero, indicating that if our statistical model is accurate, there is at least a 90.00% chance there is a difference in performance between baseline and comparison variants.

3. Its configuration does not mark it "erratic".
