AWS athena medium security documentation change
Summary
Changed default value of UseAwsLogger from 1 to 0 and added warning about sensitive information in logs when debug/trace logging is enabled
Security assessment
This change addresses a security concern by changing the default logging behavior to be more secure (disabling AWS SDK logging by default) and explicitly warns that logs may contain sensitive information when debug/trace logging is enabled. This helps prevent accidental exposure of sensitive data in logs.
