CLI: 1 second delay when not running on an EC2 instance

Describe the bug

Even when not running on an EC2 instance, the new CLI default credential provider will try to hit IMDS with a timeout of 1 second when it needs to figure out the region:

[11:52:10] Unable to retrieve AWS region from IMDS: Error: Error fetching metadata token: TimeoutError: Socket timed out without establishing a connection within 1000 ms
