AWS app2container documentation change
Summary
Refactored AWS account signup instructions and removed redundant content
Security assessment
The change replaces detailed signup steps with a reference link and removes root user security advice. While security best practices were removed, there's no evidence this relates to a specific vulnerability. The content reorganization doesn't address or introduce security issues.
