AWS glue documentation change
Summary
Added documentation for ConnectionTypeVariant structure and expanded connection type metadata fields (DisplayName, Vendor, Categories, LogoUrl)
Security assessment
Changes introduce organizational metadata and variant configurations for connection types but do not address security mechanisms or vulnerabilities. No explicit security-related content added.
