Improve Right Sizing ROI policy to filter out different types (e.g. ignore EBS gp2/sc1 recommendations)

Only display full day of information in charts

Often the most recent day has a tendency to look like a reduction when you do not have the full days' worth of data in the tool. The ability to remove the last day or set charts to -1 day would help reduce confusion with end users

Provide Functionality to trigger an Anomaly based on a larger time sample. i.e Month over Month, vs Day over Dat
