Description

### What would you like to be added?

Apply a Name tag. Use Terraform data source to grab the EKS node group Name tag and apply it as a propagating tag on the related autoscaling group.

Reference here for a potential solution https://github.com/aws/containers-roadmap/issues/781

### Why is this needed?

Having the Nodes in the Managed NodeGroups tagged with a Name Tag would make it easier to Identify EKS Worker nodes in the AWS Management Console.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the linked AWS containers-roadmap issue and locating the Terraform configuration for managed EKS node groups and their related autoscaling groups. Confirm how the EKS node group Name tag can be read and propagated, then verify in the AWS Management Console that worker nodes have the expected Name tag.
