Notable changes

EKS AMI release for Kubernetes version 1.21 (1.21 AMIs for GPU and ARM in us-gov-west-1 and us-gov-east-1 are included in this release)

Note: The containerd package has patch for CVE-2-21-32760

Containerd runtime support

The EKS Optimized Amazon Linux 2 AMI now contains a bootstrap (https://github.com/awslabs/amazon-eks-ami/blob/master/files/bootstrap.sh) flag --container-runtime to optionally enable the containerd runtime. This flag is available in all supported Kubernetes versions of the AMI. This change is to get ahead of the removal of Docker as a supported runtime in Kubernetes (more details here (https://kubernetes.io/blog/2020/12/02/dockershim-faq/). Feedback is appreciated.
