Description
### Describe the feature
As requested and liked many times please have the Certificate Construct accept a region setting again, as it has had in DnsValidatedCertificate.
https://github.com/aws/aws-cdk/issues/9274#issuecomment-1468016764
### Use Case
Create Cloudfront distributions in one region, create the corresponding certificate in us-east-1.
Create Cognito Userpools with a custom certificate as mostafafarzaneh mentioned in the linked issue.
### Proposed Solution
_No response_
### Other Information
Also the current documentation is wrong.
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cdk/api/v2/docs/aws-cdk-lib.aws_certificatemanager.Certificate.html#validation mentions a „region“ property which does not exist in https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cdk/api/v2/docs/aws-cdk-lib.aws_certificatemanager.CertificateValidation.html or https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cdk/api/v2/docs/aws-cdk-lib.aws_certificatemanager.CertificationValidationProps.html
### Acknowledgements
- [ ] I may be able to implement this feature request
- [ ] This feature might incur a breaking change
### CDK version used
2.76.0
### Environment details (OS name and version, etc.)
Mac OS 13.3
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by comparing the Certificate construct with DnsValidatedCertificate and the EdgeFunction pattern referenced in the issue. Review the CertificateValidation and CertificationValidationProps documentation, including the stated region property. Done means certificates can be created in a selected region for CloudFront or Cognito use cases, with documentation matching the supported API.
