AWS gamelift documentation change
Summary
Updated references from 'Amazon GameLift' to 'Amazon GameLift Servers' across multiple sections, changed 'Developer Guide' to 'Hosting Guide' in breadcrumb navigation
Security assessment
Changes appear to be rebranding/terminology updates rather than addressing security vulnerabilities. While the document discusses IAM permissions and security best practices, the edits only modify service name references without introducing new security content or addressing specific vulnerabilities.
