AWS local-zones documentation change
Summary
Removed detailed instructions for retrieving parent zone details via AWS Global View console and CLI. Simplified connectivity restrictions note and consolidated documentation structure.
Security assessment
The changes focus on documentation cleanup and removing redundant steps for parent zone identification. The added note about VPC connectivity restrictions is a general architectural guideline, not a security fix or feature.
