What does this PR do?

This PR adds the required environment variables (EC_ENDPOINT and ESS_REGION) to all FIPS integration test steps in the Buildkite pipeline to ensure proper ESS (Elastic Stack Service) stack provisioning during test retrying.

Why is it important?

Without these environment variables, retried FIPS integration test steps fail to provision ESS stacks correctly, causing test failures. This issue was discovered when investigating this failed build, where every retried FIPS step failed ESS stack provisioning due to the missing EC_ENDPOINT configuration (at least this is my working theory).

Interestingly, retried fips:x86_64:sudo-false:fleet CI steps appeared successful, but further investigation revealed they don't actually run any tests, which masked the underlying issue.

This fix ensures that all FIPS integration tests have the correct environment configuration regardless of whether they are initial runs or retried steps.
