AnsibleAWSModule related cleanup (batch 2) (#65987)

* Remove redundant use of ec2_argument_spec where we're using AnsibleAWSModule

* Use module.client() instead of the get_aws_connection_info/boto3_conn combo.

* AnsibleAWSModule handles 'HAS_BOTO3'

* Remove unused imports

* Update error message that lambda_policy integration test is looking for when the region's missing

* Revert redshift and s3_bucket
