AWS waf documentation change
Summary
Updated terminology from 'protection pack or web ACL' to 'protection pack (web ACL)' for consistency and clarity throughout the document
Security assessment
The changes are purely terminological clarifications to align documentation phrasing. There is no indication of addressing a security vulnerability or weakness. The updates maintain existing security documentation about label match statements but do not introduce new security features or address specific security issues.
