MathExpression in Cloudwatch graphs are fixed to a 5min period

When serializing the JSON of MathExpression objects, only the expression is output. If the MathExpression has a period other than 5min (due to being derived, say, from 1m metrics), it gets (incorrectly) rendered with 5min intervals – because the default period at the graph level is 5min, and the serialized MathExpression doesn’t specify one.

Reproduction Steps

from aws_cdk import aws_cloudwatch, aws_elasticloadbalancingv2, core


class Example(core.Construct):
    def __init__(
        self,
        scope: core.Construct,
        id: str,
        target_group: aws_elasticloadbalancingv2.ApplicationTargetGroup,
    ) -> None:
        super().__init__(scope, id)

        metric = aws_cloudwatch.MathExpression(
            expression=f"FILL(something,0)",
            using_metrics={
                "something": target_group.metric_healthy_host_count(
                    statistic="average", period=core.Duration.minutes(1),
                )
            },
            period=core.Duration.minutes(1),
        )

        dashboard = aws_cloudwatch.Dashboard(self, "dashboard")
        dashboard.add_widgets(aws_cloudwatch.GraphWidget(left=[metric], width=24))

(Note 5-min intervals on the datapoints)
