AWS chatbot documentation change

Service: chatbot · 2025-05-31 · Documentation low

File: chatbot/latest/adminguide/intro-to-the-aws-cli-in-slack.md

Summary

Updated documentation to consistently use 'Amazon Q Developer in chat channels' phrasing and updated related links

Security assessment

Changes are primarily branding/terminology updates (adding 'in chat channels' clarifications). The existing security control about blocking IAM/STS/KMS commands remains unchanged - this is a documentation phrasing update rather than a new security measure.
