Create tags on Azure resources

Tell us about your request

Allow to add a list of tags to the azure resources created by the NodePool. This can be achieved by using metadata labels or even a new section called "tags" under the NodePool template spec.

Tell us about the problem you're trying to solve. What are you trying to do, and why is it hard?

Many Azure subscriptions have Azure Policies around Tagging of the resources and the policy would deny the creation of VMs if specific tags are not present. Because of this, its impossible for Karpenter to create VMs in such subscriptions unless there is a policy exception created for this.

Are you currently working around this issue?

Current workaround is to create an exception of the Azure Policy on the required resource groups
