Describe the solution you'd like

Now the MachinePool support for ClusterClass has merged upstream in CAPI we can add it to CAPA.

There isn't a huge number of docs on this. It's mainly creating new API types:

  • AWSMachinePoolTemplate
  • AWSManagedMachinePoolTemplate - but there is no point in doing this until AWSManagedCluster and AWSManagedControlPlane have templates (see #3166)

Anything else you would like to add:

Some prior art:

Environment:

  • Cluster-api-provider-aws version:
  • Kubernetes version: (use kubectl version):
  • OS (e.g. from /etc/os-release):
