Adds a worker node pool to a cluster that is ready or worker_joined. The pool starts queued, and a ready cluster moves to worker_joining while the new nodes join.

The name must be unique among the cluster’s pools, ignoring case; a deleted pool’s name can be used again. Credit and free stock are checked as they are when you create a cluster, and a committed plan charges its whole term upfront.
