AWS amazonq documentation change
Summary
Updated activation code references to activation token, added subscription billing link, removed step to copy activation code, and renumbered steps
Security assessment
The change clarifies that the activation token is a one-time credential and removes instructions to manually store it. While this improves security documentation by emphasizing token ephemerality, there is no explicit evidence of addressing a specific vulnerability.
