AWS Security Groups created for ELBs will now be tagged with the same additional tags as the ELB; that is, the tags specified by the "service.beta.kubernetes.io/aws-load-balancer-additional-resource-tags" annotation. This is useful for identifying orphaned resources. ([#58767](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/58767), [@2rs2ts](https://github.com/2rs2ts))

* AWS Network Load Balancers will now be deleted properly, including security group rules. Fixes [#57568](https://githu...
