Description

The retry policy for the AWS 400/BadArgument response is currently "treat as a connectivity error" on the basis that sometimes it works again.

It doesn't, not normally, and by using the connectivity retry policy, unrecoverable failures can take time to surface.

Proposed: switch to a fail fast policy for BadArgumentException
