Can we make the MachineDeploymentLaunchTemplateOverrides Configurable?

It would be nice to be able to provide a custom MachineDeploymentLaunchTemplateOverrides list, so the user can use Spot Instances of all m5(a/d/ad/nz/..) m4(a/d/...) and could faster adopt new Instance familys like m6i, to reduce price and improve performance, while at the same time improving spot stability.

I have been talking to Johannes about it and ideally, we add the latest m5/m6x instances to the pool. Johannes asked me to add existing launch template though we are not sure of the drawbacks. The idea is to have more instances types in the Spot pool in order to have more chances to get a machine

The requested instance types are now available for use. More information is available in our roadmap issue.
