Extended support isn't enabled by default when a new cluster is created

[markgilbert-git]

On the page called "Understand the Kubernetes version lifecycle on EKS" - https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eks/latest/userguide/kubernetes-versions.html

The documentation states that Extended support is enabled by default, but when creating a new cluster from the console this no longer appears to be true. Standard mode now seems to be the default for both quick config and custom clusters.

I've yet to test from the CLI, but if this behaviour has changed it probably just needs to be updated to reflect that.

Hey, thanks for mentioning it. I noticed the console defaults to standard, but I'll need to check the API, etc.

I think the idea was that existing clusters were set to Extended when the upgrade policies were released, so probably 3 different variations of 'default' to document.
