AWS govcloud-us documentation change
Summary
Updated punctuation (straight apostrophes to curly quotes), corrected CLI option syntax in VM Import/Export example, and maintained existing guidance about default VPCs and export-controlled image handling.
Security assessment
The changes are primarily formatting fixes (quotation marks, CLI placeholder syntax). The note about avoiding pre-signed URLs for export-controlled images was already present and only had its CLI argument formatting adjusted. No new security guidance was introduced.
