AWS glue documentation change
Summary
Added information about new DataFrame-based DynamoDB connector in Glue 5.0+ and updated version compatibility notes. Fixed URL formatting for DynamoDB export documentation link.
Security assessment
The changes primarily document new connector capabilities and version availability. While IAM permissions are mentioned, this is existing security guidance rather than new security-related content. No specific vulnerabilities or security improvements are addressed.
