How to get the kubeconfig if the `aws` provider is used to create the eks cluster?

The <https://www.pulumi.com/registry/packages/eks/> looks like it can export the kubeconfig easier than just the `aws` provider. I’ve used `aws eks update-kubeconfig --region region-code --name my-cluster`, assuming I had the AWS CLI setup in my environment. I may start using `pulumi-eks` instead for future projects :thinking_face:.

 <https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi-eks/blob/92b885d7bae98030ea1534c938b5e11818c35f3e/sdk/go/eks/cluster.go#L481> The `GetKubeconfig` func may have more insight to how `pulumi-eks` implements it.

Right unfortunately we are using the `aws` provider at the moment

Not directly, we export necessary info (endpoint/CA data/name) and build it

Hi <@U05S7RNKHKJ>, I built the kubeconfig and used it on `pulumi_kubernetes.apps.v1.Deployment`  like this:
```k8s_provider = Kprovider("eksProvider", kubeconfig=kubeconfig_content)
deployment = Deployment(
...
opts=pulumi.ResourceOptions(providers=[aws_provider, k8s_provider]),
)```
And I got this error:
```error: configured Kubernetes cluster is unreachable: unable to load schema information from the API server: the server has asked for the client to provide credentials```
Did I miss anything?
