Description

Creating a Strands agent with default parameters (default model ID) causes the agent creation to fail in non-US region like eu-central-1 or ap-south-1 due to hardcoded model identitfer DEFAULT_BEDROCK_MODEL_ID = "us.anthropic.claude-sonnet-4-20250514-v1:0" which only works in US based regions.

The current problems is that model selection happens before region resolution. This PR changes this order such that model selection depends on region resolution first, followed by getting the regional cross-region inference model id for the AWS partition where the agent is created (e.g. apac.anthropic.claude-sonnet-4-20250514-v1:0 or eu.anthropic.claude-sonnet-4-20250514-v1:0)

We dynamically resolve the inference profile ID for the resolved region allowing this fix to work in future regions without modification.

Test suite has been updated to cater for these new changes.
