AWS CodeDeploy Deployment Group environment variable value ovewrites field value

[cojennin]

This pull request should hopefully fix the following issue I've walked through in "Steps to reproduce" below. I have it currently running on my personal Jenkins and it seems to have fixed the issue. Probably not the cleanest and unsure how to standardize this pull request, so I've just listed a steps to reproduce below and I'd be happy to make any code changes as necessary.

Steps to reproduce

• Install v1.8 of AWS Codedeploy plugin on Jenkins 1.583
• Create a project and make sure to select "This build is parameterized"
• Add "Deploy an application to AWS CodeDeploy" as a Post-Build step to a project
• In the "AWS CodeDeploy Deployment Group" field, use a parameter of the project (in this example, I will use $DEPLOYMENT_GROUP to represent the parameter). So the value of the "AWS CodeDeploy Deployment Group" field is $DEPLOYMENT_GROUP
• Run a build, pass "QA" as the value of the parameter $DEPLOYMENT_GROUP
• Wait until the build is complete complete, then revisit (leave the "Configure" page and visit it again) the "Configure" page of the project you created.
• The value of the "AWS CodeDeploy Deployment Group" field is now "QA"

+1 THANK YOU. I thought I was losing my mind. Had never seen a job mysteriously reconfigure itself before. Happy (well, not that it was a happy thing) that this issue happened to not-just-me :)
