AWS gamelift documentation change
Summary
Updated references from 'Amazon GameLift' to 'Amazon GameLift Servers' throughout the document, including service names, SDK references, and managed fleet terminology. Adjusted section headers and links to reflect updated service naming conventions.
Security assessment
The changes primarily involve branding updates and service name standardization. No security vulnerabilities, patches, or new security features are mentioned. Updates to authentication token handling and server parameters appear to be documentation refinements rather than security-related changes.
