Specifically, if AWS's libraries and tools drop support for general purpose libraries like OpenSSL in favor of their own secure-by-default "aws-lc" library, does it make more sense for Fedora to refuse to ship any of AWS's integration libraries and tools, or to ship aws-lc and treat it as an integrated part of the protocol between AWS clients and AWS services?

I think we'd have to limit this by policy, not by bundling. aws-lc could 
be bundled into s2n-tls, and that's something that the s2n-tls 
developers suggested. But s2n-tls is needed by aws-c-io and potentially 
other AWS related packages.
