AWS govcloud-us documentation change
Summary
Updated documentation to reflect rebranding from 'Amazon QuickSight' to 'Amazon Quick Suite', clarified feature limitations in AWS GovCloud (US), and adjusted authentication references.
Security assessment
The changes primarily involve product renaming and clarifying feature availability differences between standard AWS and GovCloud environments. While authentication methods and domain allow-listing are mentioned, these are existing security practices rather than new security documentation or fixes for vulnerabilities. No specific security vulnerabilities or incidents are addressed.
