feat(elasticache-redis): add engine input for valkey support RB (@nitrocode) (#1170)

## what

• add engine input for valkey support

why

• Valkey is far cheaper than redis

Notes

• Design options
  1. Add a new key to local.cluster_attributes and add a variable to the component, default it to redis, and pass as an argument to the module as-is
     • We could shy away from the pattern to using engine = var.engine in the local.
  2. Allow var.redis_clusters to supply engine with a default for redis and pass to module as-is
  3. Same as option 2 but allow local.cluster_attributes to overwrite it
     • This might be best of both worlds however no other argument does this so it would be breaking the pattern
• Went with option 2 so the argument isn't a new requirement for everyone and it doesn't break consistency
