Description
### Describe the feature
Given this [update](https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2026/07/aws-codebuild-amazon-linux-2023/), would be great for CDK to support this natively (Cfn will need to support it first).
Boto3 currently [supports](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/boto3/latest/reference/services/codebuild/client/create_project.html) as part of the `Environment` specifier.
### Use Case
Ability to specify kernel versions dynamically is hugely beneficial for myriad use cases like performance, supporting latest functionality, etc.
### Proposed Solution
Add a parameter to `Environment`.
### Other Information
_No response_
### Acknowledgements
- [ ] I may be able to implement this feature request
- [ ] This feature might incur a breaking change
### AWS CDK Library version (aws-cdk-lib)
2.257.0
### AWS CDK CLI version
2.1124.1 (build 791408c)
### Environment details (OS name and version, etc.)
Linux Fedora44
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start with the CodeBuild Environment construct and the CloudFormation support it depends on, then compare the requested setting with the Environment fields in the linked boto3 create_project documentation. Done means the host kernel parameter can be configured natively through CDK after the required Cfn support is available.
