Summary

Updated wording for mutual-TLS encryption documentation, changing 'you can enable' to 'enable' and 'see' to 'refer to'

Security assessment

The change improves documentation about enabling mutual-TLS encryption between workers, which is a security feature. However, there is no evidence of addressing a specific security vulnerability - only clarification of existing security capability.

-  * **TLS support** – With Amazon EMR Serverless releases 6.15.0 and higher, you can enable mutual-TLS encrypted communication between workers in your Spark job runs. When enabled, EMR Serverless automatically generates a unique certificate for each worker that it provisions under a job runs that workers utilize during TLS handshake to authenticate each other and establish an encrypted channel to process data securely. For more information about mutual-TLS encryption, see [Inter-worker encryption](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/emr/latest/EMR-Serverless-UserGuide/interworker-encryption.html).
