AWS AmazonECS documentation change

Summary

Updated documentation to consistently use 'Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling' instead of generic 'Auto Scaling' terminology

Security assessment

The changes only modify service name references from generic 'Auto Scaling' to 'Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling' without altering any security-related content, permissions recommendations, or addressing vulnerabilities. This appears to be a documentation specificity improvement rather than a security-related update.
