AWS gamelift documentation change
Summary
Updated documentation to consistently use 'Amazon GameLift Servers' branding instead of 'Amazon GameLift' throughout the file. Changed references from 'Realtime server' to 'Amazon GameLift Servers Realtime' and updated SDK naming conventions.
Security assessment
Changes are branding/naming convention updates without any mention of security vulnerabilities, mitigations, or new security features. No security-specific content was added or modified beyond service name standardization.
