I'm seeing an issue with EKS when updating the k8s version of a Node Group using Pulumi. We have an `eks.ManagedNodeGroup` (the node group is currently on Kubernetes version `1.31`).

When I update the `version` property on this type, `pulumi preview` is not showing any version change on the Node Group. I've tried a few things, but hoping someone here might have seen a similar issue before, or any advice on how to debug this?

(p.s. Sorry for cross-posting on <#CRH5ENVDX|>)

In case someone else has this issue, we've worked around this by specifying the AMI. Previously the AMI seemed to be inferred from this `version` property.

Hi James! Do you have userData or the amiId set? It looks like the logic removes the version if those are explicitly set <https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi-eks/blob/master/nodejs/eks/nodes/nodegroup.ts#L2051>

Looks like these may trigger that behavior as well: "bootstrapExtraArgs", "kubeletExtraArgs", "bottlerocketSettings", and "nodeadmExtraOptions"
