get_latest_ami_id() returns the newest Amazon owned AMI whose description matches "Amazon Linux*". As soon as a preview AMI for an unreleased Amazon Linux generation is published it is newer than every released image, so the helper starts handing that preview image to example_ec2 and example_ssm. Preview images are not supported by every AWS service. SSM Patch Manager for instance has no patch baseline operating system for them, so tooling that patches the instances these system tests start fails for as long as one of them is running. Filter out any image whose name or description mentions "preview" so the helper keeps returning a released image, and drop the stale comment about the Amazon Linux 2022 rename.
