(aws-eks): Add validate flag to KubernetesManifest class to pass invalidated objects

[shrivastavshubham34]

It would be great if we could pass unvalidated resources.
Since the flag --validate=false was added to kubectl. We could probably have a constructor attribute called validate.

Use Case

I'm trying to add an ALB ingress controller to the EKS cluster. But right now cannot do that through CDK.
I need to add cert-manager which needs to be run without validation.
Source:EKS-ALB-Ingress-Guide

kubectl apply --validate=false -f https://github.com/jetstack/cert-manager/releases/download/v1.0.2/cert-manager.yaml

Proposed Solution

Add constructor props to KubernetesManifest class to include --validate as an boolean argument.
Also add a validate prop to addManifest() function of @aws-cdk/aws-eks.Cluster class

        cluster.add_manifest('alb-ingress-controller-core',*manifest,validate=false)

Hi, do we have an ETA for this? If not I can switch to EKSCTL for the time being, 😄
