AWS autoscaling documentation change
Summary
Updated terminology from 'Auto Scaling group' to 'Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling group' throughout the document, including titles, step names, console references, and navigation elements.
Security assessment
The changes are purely terminological updates with no modifications to security configurations, vulnerability disclosures, or security best practices. All security-related content (e.g., security group references) remains unchanged.
