Summary

Updated API Gateway service quotas: Added clarification about regional API timeout limit adjustments and added ap-southeast-3 region to throttle rate/burst limits

Security assessment

Changes relate to service quota documentation updates and regional availability expansions. While throttle rates impact API abuse prevention, there's no evidence this change addresses a specific security vulnerability.
