AWS prescriptive-guidance documentation change
Summary
Added identical AI glossary entries as in strategy-matter-standard version (A2A, Agent, FM gateway, AI guardrails, etc.)
Security assessment
Same security-relevant terms added as first file ('guardrails (AI)' and 'Shadow AI'). Provides consistent security documentation across guides but doesn't address specific vulnerabilities.
