Summary

Removed JSON policy examples for AWSManagedPolicy SellerAdministrator, Contributor, and ReadOnly roles

Security assessment

The change removes detailed IAM policy examples but does not indicate any specific security vulnerability being addressed. This appears to be documentation cleanup rather than a security-related update. While IAM policies impact security posture, there's no evidence this change fixes a vulnerability.
