AWS athena documentation change
Summary
Added clarification that Lambda environment properties only apply when using the connector with a Lambda function in your account, and updated terminology from 'Glue connections' to 'AWS Glue Data Catalog federated connection' in three bullet points regarding Secrets Manager requirements, multiplexing handler support, and ConnectionSchemaVersion support.
Security assessment
The change clarifies existing security practices (using AWS Secrets Manager for credentials) but does not indicate a security vulnerability fix. It updates terminology and adds a note about Lambda environment scope, which are routine documentation improvements without security incident evidence.
