Kubernetes Engine support for Cluster Autoscaler node group auto-discovery

OCI Kubernetes Engine now supports the capability of the Kubernetes Cluster Autoscaler to discover which node pool (or node pools) to manage.

You can now specify that the Kubernetes Cluster Autoscaler (installed either as a standalone program or as a cluster add-on) is to scale node pools with particular defined tags and freeform tags that you specify, using the --node-group-auto-discovery parameter.

Using the --node-group-auto-discovery parameter simplifies the management of node pools within a cluster and is particularly useful in environments where node pools are frequently added, removed, or modified.
