Description
Currently, if cluster creation fails for some reason, the agent's `eksctl` won't roll back the CF stack that was created. This can lead to latter results where subsequent cluster creations fail because the stack name is already taken:
```
2023-05-09 21:47:58 [✖] creating CloudFormation stack "eksctl-x86-64-aws-k8s-124-cluster":
operation error CloudFormation: CreateStack, https response error StatusCode:
400, RequestID: 3aedd327-554f-418c-8b7b-581c217787c0, Error: failed to create cluster "x86-64-aws-k8s-124"
```
Rollback completes succesfully but that stack name is still there. Not too hard to go in and manually clean up that stack, but would be great if this was alittle more 1-button-push

Research direction
No source file or test is named. Start by locating the agent's eksctl cluster-creation and CloudFormation stack cleanup paths, then trace what happens after a failed creation. Done means a failed cluster creation removes the created stack so a subsequent creation is not blocked by the existing stack name.
