AWS drs documentation change
Summary
Removed image references, improved verb tense consistency, and expanded documentation for server deletion process including termination options and recovery instance management
Security assessment
Changes focus on documentation clarity and process details rather than security. While server deletion procedures have security implications, the updates describe operational processes without introducing new security features or addressing vulnerabilities.
