Description

### Describe the feature

AWS recenty introduced the [`scaleInAfter`](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/TemplateReference/aws-properties-ecs-capacityprovider-infrastructureoptimization.html#aws-properties-ecs-capacityprovider-infrastructureoptimization-properties) property for ECS Managed Instances, but that's not currently supported in the [`ManagedInstancesCapacityProvider`](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cdk/api/v2/docs/aws-cdk-lib.aws_ecs.ManagedInstancesCapacityProvider.html) L2 construct.

Research direction

Start at the TypeScript implementation and tests for the ManagedInstancesCapacityProvider L2 construct, then compare its supported properties with the AWS CloudFormation ECS infrastructure optimization reference. Trace how construct properties map to the synthesized ECS capacity provider and verify that scaleInAfter is accepted and emitted with the expected value.
