AWS securityhub documentation change
Summary
Removed all documentation references to the 'AWSServiceRoleForSecurityHubV2' service-linked role including its permissions, creation process, editing restrictions, and deletion requirements.
Security assessment
The change removes outdated documentation about a deprecated service-linked role. There's no evidence this relates to addressing a security vulnerability; it appears to be routine cleanup of obsolete content without security implications.
