Description
## Description
A new PromQLAlarm L2 construct in aws-cdk-lib/aws-cloudwatch that lets users create CloudWatch alarms based on PromQL queries. It extends AlarmBase (alongside Alarm and CompositeAlarm), supports query, evaluationInterval, pendingPeriod, and recoveryPeriod properties, and maps to `AWS::CloudWatch::Alarm` using the `EvaluationCriteria.PromQLCriteria` configuration.

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reviewing the proposed PromQLAlarm L2 construct in aws-cdk-lib/aws-cloudwatch and comparing the mentioned AlarmBase, Alarm, and CompositeAlarm APIs. Check how the construct should map to AWS::CloudWatch::Alarm through EvaluationCriteria.PromQLCriteria; done requires an approved API and implementation plan covering query, evaluationInterval, pendingPeriod, and recoveryPeriod.
