Description
### Describe the feature
Using the aws-eks library it would be great if I was able to create a nodeGroup with a Graviton GPU instance like the g5g class. However, the NodegroupAmiType does not support AL2_ARM_64_GPU only AL2_ARM_64 which gets denied when trying to synth cdk. If I don't specify the amiType it defaults to AL2_x86_64_GPU and errors out that the g5g.xlarge is not a valid instance type for the requested amiType.
### Use Case
To create a nodeGroup with a g5g instance type
### Proposed Solution
add support for AL2_ARM_64_GPU to the NodegroupAmiType enum.
### Other Information
_No response_
### Acknowledgements
- [ ] I may be able to implement this feature request
- [ ] This feature might incur a breaking change
### CDK version used
2.87.0
### Environment details (OS name and version, etc.)
Mac os 12.4
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start in the aws-eks library at the NodegroupAmiType enum and inspect how the amiType is validated during CDK synth. Verify the g5g instance type with AL2_ARM_64_GPU, then confirm synthesis accepts the new combination without the existing AMI type error.
