Summary

Updated terminology from 'chat channels' to 'chat applications' in Amazon Q Developer references and IAM role documentation links

Security assessment

Changes are purely terminological updates (channels→applications) with no security implications. No security vulnerabilities, configuration changes, or access control modifications were introduced. IAM role requirements remain functionally identical with updated naming conventions.
