Description
**Expected Behavior**
AWS Tools for Powershell should have a Cmdlet equivalent of https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/eks/update-kubeconfig.html
**Current Behavior**
AWS Tools for Powershell currently does not support generation of a kubeconfig file for an EKS cluster.
**Context**
Some customers cannot use the CLI due to technical or policy limitations. With a PowerShell alternative not being available, these customers have to manually create these files to connect to their EKS clusters.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reviewing the AWS CLI update-kubeconfig reference linked in the issue and the EKS and PowerShell cmdlet entry points in this repository. Define the equivalent cmdlet's required inputs and behavior, then verify that it generates a kubeconfig file that connects to an EKS cluster.
