AWS waf documentation change
Summary
Added references to 'protection pack' alongside web ACL in multiple sections and introduced new console experience documentation
Security assessment
The changes integrate 'protection pack' terminology into existing WAF documentation, which appears to document a new security-related feature. However, there's no evidence of addressing a specific vulnerability or security incident.
