AWS connect documentation change

Service: connect · 2025-09-10 · Documentation low

File: connect/latest/adminguide/connect-attrib-list.md

Summary

Added table of contents and expanded segment attributes documentation with user-defined attribute validation details

Security assessment

Documentation now explicitly describes enforcing valid values for user-defined attributes, which helps prevent invalid data input - a security-adjacent best practice but not a direct vulnerability fix.
