Description

An example showing the recommended way of enabling HTTPS on an `ApplicationLoadBalancedFargateService`.

### Use Case

I am having issues enabling HTTPS in my `ApplicationLoadBalancedFargateService`. I have been digging many issues and StackOverflow issues and trying to wrap my head around all the possible configurations. Should I add `certificate` to the service directly? Then I need to set up domains. Should I create an entirely new `ApplicationLoadBalancer`? Should I add a listener for 443 in the `loadBalancer` property?

There is no clear path and the documentation is somewhat inconsistent as to how to do it.

* [X] :wave: I may be able to implement this feature request
* [ ] :warning: This feature might incur a breaking change

Research direction

Start by locating the documentation or examples for ApplicationLoadBalancedFargateService and review the existing HTTPS configuration guidance. Confirm the recommended setup with the project’s current APIs, then add a focused example that resolves the certificate, domain, load balancer, and port questions; done means the example is clear and consistent with the surrounding documentation.
