AWS autoscaling documentation change
Summary
Updated references from 'Auto Scaling groups' to 'Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling groups' in IAM policy examples and explanations
Security assessment
While the document discusses IAM permissions for tagging (a security-related topic), the changes only involve terminology updates rather than introducing new security guidance or addressing vulnerabilities. The existing security note about instance tag control remains unchanged except for terminology.
