LGTM pending RKE2 cgroup checks

[brandond]

I'm going to hold on this until the August release cycle, as I'd like more lead time on testing it.

[brandond]

@dereknola I have confirmed this works on Windows, using RKE2: rancher/rke2#6909

It looks like RKE2 adds some extra CLI flags to the kubelet, so those will need to be migrated over to config as well once this is merged: https://github.com/rancher/rke2/blob/b696280a35f87bb260f26b256d7be839f1945535/pkg/pebinaryexecutor/pebinary.go#L146-L168
