Allow per project hide/show region

[drAlberT]

I'm always frustrated when I switch project (and client) and the regions being showed are not the right ones.

It would be very useful to be possible to hide/show regions on a per project base.

Thanks

This makes sense, though we need to figure out the experience for when a user opens a new workspace (so that users don't have to always re-select regions each time they open a new project).

Proposal

• When user selects a region, Toolkit asks Show region in all workspaces?
  • Showing/hiding a region is(?) an uncommon task, so the extra prompt is acceptable.
  • If user chooses all workspaces then Toolkit stores the region in VSCode global settings; else in workspace-local settings.
• When opening a new workspace, Toolkit shows regions stored in VSCode global settings.

Yes, your proposal is exactly what I meant.

For reference, the show/hide region command was improved a bit here (not released yet): https://github.com/aws/aws-toolkit-vscode/pull/2569
