We keep putting more users on our servers (🥳), but this is raising load. Previously, I scaled out some extra nodes, but they were all t3.* instance types which are not ideal at all for production use. This PR replaces all of those nodes with a fresh, new set of m7a.2xlarge instances. This is a substantial increase in compute power that also removes the CPU credit metering we have to deal with in T-class instance types.

However, while carefully rolling these changes out, I ran a pulumi refresh, which brought to light a bug that I have fixed in tb_pulumi. For this reason, I am pinning this to the main branch; I don't want to involve this code change in other environments.

These code changes have already been rolled out.
