Pricing Diff for Similar Instances Across Cloud Providers

We added price comparison across cloud providers when viewing similar instances in other providers, based on the nearest region. We also take currency exchange rates into account, since Azure uses a semi-fixed exchange rate.

In the example above, Standard_ND96isr_H100_v5 has an alternative - p5-48xlarge which is 44% cheaper on AWS in nearly the same geographic location (us-east-1). With a same amount 8x H100 GPUs and GPU memory.

All API endpoints now include a cloudProvider parameter and return extended data - for example, from /aws/ec2/instances/{instance_type}/similar available here.
