Description

Our how-tos have the us region and a lot of our users use a different one, so the how-tos don't work for them.
Some were able to notice that but others didn't, and we don't mention it or link to the regions page it.

Definition of Done:
Highlight the fact that these how-tos use us region by default + link to the regions page.
Consider different options, like a prereq, a notice after the prereq, etc.

Ask Sid for design input.

Research direction

Locate the Terraform how-tos that use the us region and the existing regions page. Ask Sid for design input, then choose where the notice belongs, such as a prerequisite or post-prerequisite note. Done means the how-tos clearly identify us as the default and link to the regions page.
