Summary

Added PowerShell V5 example for retrieving EC2 instance profile details

Security assessment

This demonstrates normal operational use of instance profiles without addressing security weaknesses or introducing new security controls. Instance profiles are security mechanisms, but the documentation change itself doesn't enhance security guidance.
