Description

I need to setup a VPC Interface Endpoint for SES as described at https://docs.aws.amazon.com/ses/latest/DeveloperGuide/send-email-set-up-vpc-endpoints.html via the CDK.

### Use Case
We configure and deploy our entire infrastructure as code via the javascript CDK. While I can grant our VPC access to services such as Secrets Manager using `addInterfaceEndpoint()` and `InterfaceVpcEndpointAwsService.SECRETS_MANAGER`, I can't see a way to connect SES.

Indeed, while the VPC user guide [lists SES as an available interface endpoint](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/vpc/latest/userguide/vpce-interface.html), the same option is [missing in the latest CDK](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cdk/api/latest/docs/@aws-cdk_aws-ec2.InterfaceVpcEndpointAwsService.html).

### Proposed Solution
Add the ability to setup a VPC endpoint for SES.

Research direction

Start with the JavaScript CDK entry point `addInterfaceEndpoint()` and the `InterfaceVpcEndpointAwsService.SECRETS_MANAGER` service list, then compare them with the AWS VPC interface endpoint documentation for SES. Done means the CDK can configure an SES interface endpoint through the same API described in the issue.
