This PR adds support for specifying a default S3 region when it cannot
be determined from the URL, or the underlying backup/restore solution
(or S3 server) does not support redirects to the correct region. See

What I have tested:
- Rendered a chart with credentials that specify the new region key
- Deployed the chart
- Observed CNPG backups succeeding (they were failing if I did not
specify the region). See notes for more information
- Observed Volsync backups succeeding
**📃 Notes:**
**Regarding the CNPG backups failiure:**
I am using a LAN IP address for the S3 backup endpoint. While Volsync
can work with just that, CNPG backups were failing. I am not 100% sure
what the underlying reason is. Still, from brief research on Google, I
suspect the reason CNPG fails and Volsync doesn't is because Volsync can
follow a redirect to the correct region by the S3 server, while CNPG's
barman cannot.
In the S3 server logs I see that CNPG tries to use `us-east-1` as the
region, which the server rejects.
I tried alternative solutions such as placing the region in the URL
path, however, that did not work. From the S3 server docs (which just
reference AWS S3 docs for the most part), I gather that a region can
only be specified in the URL as a subdomain - i.e.
`my-region.my-endpoint.com/my-bucket`. Since I am using a LAN IP to
connect to the server, I cannot specify a subdomain.
Adding the region in the CNPG config makes it "default" to the correct
region, and backup succeeds.
**Regarding CNPG's migration to the plugin-based barman**:
I know this project will need to migrate to the CNPG's new plugin-based
barman. However, as shown by the [migration
guide](https://cloudnative-pg.io/plugin-barman-cloud/docs/migration/#example),
similarly to my previous PRs (#40523, #40385), the `region` value can
just be migrated to the new `ObjectStore` CRD like so:
```yaml
...
barmanObjectStore:
endpointURL: ...
...
s3Credentials:
region:
name: secret-name
key: REGION
```
Migrates to:
```yaml
apiVersion: barmancloud.cnpg.io/v1
kind: ObjectStore
...
spec:
configuration:
endpointURL: ...
...
s3Credentials:
region:
name: secret-name
key: REGION
```
