func_documentation_string: Takes an identifier, either an InstanceId or Name Tag and returns whether the
  instance exists in any state. The second instanceState allows specification
  of the state the machine is in. Will also return false if an error is thrown
  when given an invalid or non existent instance ID.
  
  i.e
  doesInstanceExist('i-456ae390', 'running')
  Will only return true if that instance exists, and is in a running state.
