Locations for datasets and jobs are identified by strings, and these can be passed directly into the API,
for exmaple in BigQueryClient.WithDefaultLocation.
This allows you to use additional locations as soon as they are made available via the BigQuery
service, without any libray updates - but it relies on the location strings being known.
This class makes it easy to access locations that were available at the point of release. It will be
updated as new locations become available, but if you wish to use a location that isn't specified here,
that will work with no problems, assuming the location is correctly specified and available to you.
