Create Billing Alert in CDK #9

Hi Jeremy, good luck with this project!

I finally got around to setting up my own billing alerts after hearing about this latest billing surprise: https://twitter.com/QuinnyPig/status/1280280727133642753

Although very simple do you think this would be a good pattern to include to encourage more people to do this before their credit card gently weeps?

NB. there is currently a dead link in the readme to https://www.jeremydaly.com/billing-alert-pattern (I copied the format from the other patterns)

So I love this because I hadn't even thought to make a billing alert in CDK (that's really awesome!) but I'm not sure this would be considered a pattern? Just my 2¢

+1 for adding this as a pattern, because if you don't set up alerts, you're in for a big surprise next month.
