AWS setup - deploy RStudio environment container

[ychae]

Distilled from #11

Documentation for how to do this can be found here.

Describe the solution you'd like

• [x] Deploy an RStudio environment container. This will allow a challenge solution submission to Synapse through the RStudio environment. The setup has some subtleties - @milen-sage estimates about 4-6 hours of work here (but hopefully the instructions speed that up).

From @BrunoGrandePhD:

The infrastructure deployed in https://github.com/Sage-Bionetworks/scicomp-provisioner/pull/478 requires an nginx reverse proxy to redirect HTTPS traffic (port 443) to RStudio (port 8787).

Update Dockerfile to use rocker/tidyverse:4.0.5, which builds on top of rocker/rstudio (i.e. it includes RStudio). This should speed up image building significantly since all of the tidyverse packages (and their OS-level dependencies) are pre-installed.
