EnabldDnsHostnames needs to be set to "true"

[mreferre]

I am posting this here to keep track of the issue and potentially handle this corner case. This relates to the Compose/ECS integration and is tracked/documented in this StackOverflow thread.

TL/DR: customers MUST have EnabldDnsHostnames set to true on the VPC, else Service Discovery by DNS names don't work.

This is a legit requirement. Ideally Compose should be checking for that and abort deployment with a meaningful error message. At a minimum the compose/ecs docs should call out explicitly this requirement in the service discovery section
