Summary

Updated documentation to consistently use full service name 'Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling' instead of 'Auto Scaling' across multiple sections

Security assessment

The changes are branding/terminology updates to use the full service name for clarity. No security vulnerabilities, configurations, or features are mentioned or modified. The updates maintain existing security guidance about IAM roles and resource permissions without adding new security content.
