AWS config forced to us-east-1 in variable, not inline.

There are several AWS services that are global in scope and thus need to
be accessed via the us-east-1 endpoints, so we'll make the us-east-1
variant of the config available as a variable we can reuse between multiple
clients as we add support for new services.
