Support for using existing or Terraform-managed task definitions

[filipemacedo]

Issue #: https://github.com/aws-actions/amazon-ecs-deploy-task-definition/issues/299

Description of changes:

Currently, the action creates new task definitions, which can result in desynchronization with configurations managed by tools like Terraform. With this update, users now have the ability to use existing task definitions managed by Terraform, providing greater cohesion and consistency in their deployment environments.

Key Changes:

• Added the capability to specify an existing task definition in Terraform to be deployed, avoiding the creation of new definitions.
• Updated documentation to guide users on how to use this new functionality.
• Added additional tests to ensure the integrity and reliability of the action
