AWS deadline-cloud documentation change
Summary
Removed documentation stating that Deadline Cloud uses AWS STS for worker authentication and the requirement to create an STS endpoint for VPC interface endpoints.
Security assessment
The change removes references to AWS STS authentication, which may indicate an architectural update, but there is no concrete evidence in the diff of a security vulnerability, weakness, or incident being addressed.
