CloudFront invalidations are [very error prone](https://github.com/aws/aws-cdk/issues/15891#issuecomment-966456154), making it hard to invalidate distributions reliably. This construct aims to solve this problem by using a step function which is triggered on stack update, and uses exponential backoff to retry the invalidation. Inspired by https://github.com/aws/aws-cdk/issues/15891#issuecomment-1362163142.

const app = new App()
const stack = new Stack(app, 'stack-name', {
  env: {
    region: 'us-east-1', // region must be specified
  },
})
