AWS medialive documentation change

Summary

Corrected IAM action names for Elemental Link device management and transfer operations

Security assessment

Change fixes incorrect/malformed IAM action names (e.g. changing 'Descriptivism' to 'DescribeInputDevice'). While accurate IAM permissions are security-relevant, there's no evidence this addresses an active security vulnerability - appears to be documentation cleanup.
