AWS cli low security documentation change

Service: cli · 2025-07-18 · Security-related low

File: cli/latest/reference/cloudfront/get-distribution.md

Summary

Added multiple notes about multi-tenant distribution limitations and WAF version requirements

Security assessment

Added explicit note that 'Multi-tenant distributions only support WAF V2 web ACLs' - WAF is a security feature and specifying version requirements helps enforce security best practices. Other notes clarify security-related constraints for SaaS configurations.
