Title: Trivial fixes & enhancements for regions that are not us-east-1

1- Fix the region and key_name command-line params
They were not taken into account when passed on the command-line.

2- Generate the availability zone so it works
outside of the default us-east-1
At the moment, it derives it as "#{region}a"

3- Generate the aki for lucid as listed on canonical
http://cloud.ubuntu.com/ami.
This is still a problem: I could not find a kernel that would boot micro-bosh-stemcell-1.1.0 except on us-east-1
I have asked for help on the bosh-users mailing list: https://groups.google.com/a/cloudfoundry.org/group/bosh-users/browse_thread/thread/d0f0a50d2b137726/778d9812898cc44e

Please disregard if in fact microbosh simply is not ready for something else than us-east-1.
