Description

[From November 2020](https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/multi-region-replication-now-enabled-for-aws-managed-microsoft-active-directory/), Microsoft AD on the Enterprise Edition has supported adding up to 4 additional regions for replicating your directory. Within these regions, Directory Service will create additional domain controllers inside a subnet to replicate to.

The [API call](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/directoryservice/latest/devguide/API_AddRegion.html), `AddRegion`, exists, however, the functionality to configure this within CloudFormation does not.

The expected behaviour is to be able to have an additional attribute `ReplicationRegions` where this can be configured.

Research direction

Start with the AWS::DirectoryService::MicrosoftAD resource and compare its current CloudFormation properties with the AddRegion API described in the linked AWS documentation. Done means the resource exposes a ReplicationRegions attribute that can configure additional replication regions, including the stated limit of up to four.
