Bug Description

If a watch rule goes into an ALARM state and stays in the ALARM state, only one actions event is ever emitted.

In the example where bringing up one new server isn't sufficient to reduce the load below the alarm threshold, no new servers are ever created.

    Emit alarm actions if a rule remains in ALARM state.

    It looks like the original intent of this edge-triggering was to
    prevent actions being emitted too frequently, causing overshoot of
    scaling resources.

    However this causes an issue when one scaling resource change is not
    enough to bring the alarm state under the threshold.

    Proper use of Period, EvaluationPeriods and Threshold should be sufficient
    to prevent scaling resource overshoot.
