When configuring the provider, currently we only accept the name of a
region. As per hashicorp/terraform-provider-google#4133, being
able to use self_links for regions here would be helpful. I added a
utility function to pull the region's name from a self_link, tests for
that behavior, and then used it when setting up our Config object. It'll
either return what the user passed in, or if it recognizes it as a
region self_link, it'll just return the name part of the region. I also
left it open to expand on potentially more formats in the future.
