Provide a way to run a cleanup script after a deployment error

[attekei]

CodeDeploy is missing a mechanism for doing cleanup after a deployment error. This could be implemented as another lifecycle event that is triggered only when a deployment fails for some reason. This reason could be e.g. a non-zero exit status of a hook script, a timeout or a user-triggered cancellation of the deployment.

The idea of this originates from a more specific issue regarding ASG lifecycle scripts. In that case, an auto-scaling group is left in an unclean state after an error during a deployment.

One remotely similar mechanism for error handling is the rescue block in Ansible:
