Build + Deploy Issue Bugfixes

- Changed .NET projects to target net472 so there's no need for runtime installs.
- Updated the build.sh script to handle deploying to targeted AWS regions by specifying the --region flag
- Removed hardcoded AMIs from the terrafrom deploy process
- Fixed some issues that come up when running the script from ARM architecture machines.
