AWS gamelift documentation change
Summary
Updated documentation to consistently use 'Amazon GameLift Servers' branding instead of 'Amazon GameLift' throughout the guide. Changed menu references, code examples, and service interaction descriptions to reflect the product name specificity.
Security assessment
The changes are branding/naming updates (adding 'Servers' to service references) and do not address security vulnerabilities or introduce new security features. Mentions of authentication tokens remain unchanged as part of existing functionality.
