Use JetBrains refasmer to create reference assemblies for AWS dependencies, and build against these. This should reduce dependency of specific versions of AWS.Tools.
Turns out that using a reference assembly did not break the dependency on AWS.Tools.Common due to too explicit version numbering of its assembly. The solution was to remove that dependency entirely.
