Remove default EKS Regions in create form

Emily Ring requested to merge 216974-optional-input-field into master

What does this MR do?

When a user wants to create a new EKS cluster, we default their region to us-east-2.

This is causing some customers to view the wrong list of regions. See issue: #216974 (closed)

There is also an issue of government regions being block, which may be the same issue: #231525 (closed)

Proposed solution: remove the dropdown and automatic assignment of regions. Instead, ask the customer to enter their regions manually.

This will not solve Connectivity or Permission Issues, but it will prevent GitLab from only loading us-east-2 regions.
