Summary

Added IAM policy requirements for instances migrated to Service Linked Roles to access Polly's SynthesizeSpeech API

Security assessment

The change documents required IAM permissions for proper feature functionality, which is security-related configuration guidance. However, there's no evidence this addresses an existing security vulnerability - it appears to be proactive documentation of required permissions for a feature.
