AWS gamelift documentation change
Summary
Updated documentation to replace 'Amazon GameLift' with 'Amazon GameLift Servers' throughout the document, including section headers, feature names, and service references. Added 'Servers' suffix to product names and updated related links.
Security assessment
Changes are branding/naming updates rather than security-related content. No vulnerabilities, security controls, or incident responses are mentioned. Updates focus on clarifying product naming without introducing new security features or addressing security issues.
