Description

## Request:
Make rules to validate that a template defines resources that exist for a particular region using the [CloudFormation resource specifications](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/cfn-resource-specification.html)

## Reason
I currently develop CDK/CloudFormation that need to work across across various regions. I would like to make sure that my templates do not define resources that don't exist in one of the regions I intend to deploy to

Research direction

The request names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by reading the linked CloudFormation resource specifications and reviewing how this repository currently validates templates; done means generating rules that identify resources unavailable in each target region.
