AWS dlami documentation change
Summary
Updated support policy documentation to include operating system security patches, clarified terminology, added notification subscription guidance, and restructured FAQs
Security assessment
Added explicit documentation about security patches for supported operating systems and frameworks, but no evidence of addressing a specific vulnerability. Changes focus on clarifying existing security maintenance policies rather than responding to a new security issue.
