Here I am switching from using the "optimal" instances, which are all 4-series, to named instance types for our batch compute environments. This is related to https://github.com/AlexsLemonade/scpca-nf/issues/709 where we may need more memory than available in the R4 instances.
I also switched to the new SPOT_PRICE_CAPACITY_OPTIMIZED allocation strategy where applicable, because that might control costs a bit better, especially given the fact that we are now allowing more expensive instance types.
I wasn't sure whether it was worth including both Intel and AMD instance types, but it doesn't seem like it should hurt?
I have not yet applied this change; I am waiting for review of my choices here.
