Issue details

Currently the components in this provider accept multiple inputs that are pulumi resources. For example an aws.iam.InstanceProfile for NodeGroup & NodeGroupV2.

This complicates passing dependencies across stacks or using constants for known properties and forces users to centralize their configuration or use .get functions for retrieving handles for resources.

The bug pulumi/pulumi#17515 complicates this scenario even further because the results of .get fail to be passed across component boundaries in nodejs.

To simplify the API, we should introduce scalar properties for all resources. E.g. a string input property called instanceProfileName for the instance profile.
