   **Is your feature request related to a problem or challenge? Please describe

   When using a named profile via the `AWS_PROFILE` environment variable, the 
user must also supply an `AWS_REGION` environment variable even when the 
profile designates the desired region (in `~/.aws/config`).
   
   **Describe the solution you'd like**
   <!--
   A clear and concise description of what you want to happen.

   I think object_store should default to the region designated on the active 
profile, when the `aws_profile` feature is active, to alleviate the need for a 
redundant environment variable.
   
   **Describe alternatives you've considered**

   We could just force users to supply `AWS_REGION` always, but that seems like 
unnecessary friction.
   
   **Additional context**
   <!--
   Add any other context or screenshots about the feature request here.
   -->
   
   This will improve the UX for CLI utilities that rely on object_store, like 
DataFusion CLI: apache/arrow-datafusion#6157
