Allow lambda loggroup retention settings

[muckelba]

Describe the feature

I recently noticed that my AWS account has a lot of loggroups of lambdas from old, deleted blueprints clusters. All loggroups have their retention set to Never expire. It would be nice if there's a blueprints option to configure the lambda settings (including retention).

Not sure if that's somehow already possible but i was not able to find an option for that.

Use Case

To prevent AWS accounts to be flooded with old, uneeded CloudWatch loggroups.

@muckelba I assume you mean log groups for the lambdas that support custom resources for CDK such as the one handling EKS cluster creation or helm chart installation. I looked around in the past and could not find a specific controls in CDK to make it happen. Let me take another look now. Worst case, I will have to create an issue against CDK and reference it there.
