Summary

Removed JSON policy example for EKS pod identity role with sts:AssumeRole and sts:TagSession permissions

Security assessment

The removed content was an IAM trust policy example for EKS pod identity integration. While IAM policies are security-related, the removal does not indicate a specific security vulnerability being addressed. This appears to be documentation cleanup rather than a security fix.
