Research direction

Start with the AWS CDK EKS BootstrapOptions documentation and compare kubeletExtraArgs with the existing Auto Scaling Group path. Trace how Managed Node Groups receive bootstrap settings, then define coverage showing that additional kubelet flags such as --allowed-unsafe-sysctls are passed through.
