AWS eks documentation change
Summary
Removed references to 'containerd' runtime and dockershim deprecation documentation links in two locations
Security assessment
The changes remove outdated runtime references but don't directly address security vulnerabilities. While container runtime choices have security implications, the modification appears to be documentation cleanup rather than security remediation.
