AWS autoscaling documentation change
Summary
Updated documentation to use full 'Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling group' naming convention consistently throughout the file, including headings, instructions, and linked references
Security assessment
The changes consist of branding/naming convention updates from 'Auto Scaling group' to 'Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling group'. No security-related content was added or modified. The updates focus on product naming consistency rather than addressing security vulnerabilities or introducing security features.
