Switch to using an auto-generated riff-raff.yaml file

[akash1810]

What does this change?

Switch to using a riff-raff.yaml file generated by GuCDK.

Whilst this isn't strictly required, this is in preparation to switching to the newly released GuEc2AppExperimental.

How to test

Testing can be done by using the validation tool to understand the deployment graph, comparing the current (manual) and this (generated).

Ultimately, however, testing is done by deploying and seeing the correct AWS resources being effected:

• The CloudFormation stack should be updated
• The ASG should have its capacity doubled, then halved

Indeed, a deployment to CODE has been successful.

[akash1810]

riff-raff.yaml generation requires each stack to have the region explicitly set.

[akash1810]

The riff-raff.yaml generator uses the class name for the app property of the cloud-formation deployment type. Rename PrismEc2App to Prism as the app tag is prism not prism-ec2-app.
