Summary

Fixed multiple typos including 'security pathces' to 'security patches', grammatical corrections, and removed duplicated 'support'

Security assessment

These are typographical corrections that improve clarity but don't change security meaning. The 'security patches' correction fixes a spelling error but doesn't indicate a new security vulnerability or feature. The warning about not terminating instances remains unchanged in substance.

-During an automatic platform-version rollout a cluster status changes to `UPDATING`. The update process consists of the replacement of all Kubernetes control-plane instances with new ones containing the latest security pathces and bugfixes released for the respective Kubernetes minor version. In general, a local cluster platform update process completes within less than 30 minutes and the cluster changes back to `ACTIVE` status. If a local cluster remains in the `UPDATING` state for an extended period of time, you may call `describe-cluster` to check for information about the cause in the `cluster.health` output field.
