Summary

Added PlayerGatewayMode documentation with DDoS protection details

Security assessment

The change explicitly states player gateway provides DDoS protection benefits. This adds security feature documentation but does not indicate remediation of a specific vulnerability. The documentation appears preventative rather than reactive to a security incident.
