Describe the issue you're reporting

While adding the component to Alloy (the Otel collector distribution of Grafana), I tested the component locally using Localstack but I couldn't configure my collector to point at the Localstack.

The only way to get it to work was to add "WithEndpoint" to the Aws config here: https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector-contrib/blob/main/receiver/awscloudwatchreceiver/logs.go#L354

Should there be a parameter for this or am I missing something? I'd be happy to contribute with a PR if you think that's a good idea.
