AWS amazonglacier documentation change

Service: amazonglacier · 2025-10-01 · Documentation low

File: amazonglacier/latest/dev/api-common-response-headers.md

Summary

Updated terminology from 'S3 Glacier' to 'Glacier' in multiple places, including service references and response header documentation. Adjusted links to remove 'S3' prefix in display text while maintaining same URLs.

Security assessment

Changes are branding/terminology updates rather than security-related modifications. No security vulnerabilities, encryption changes, or access control updates are mentioned. The 'advanced optional encryption features' reference remains unchanged from previous version.
