AWS redshift documentation change
Summary
Restructured 'Signing up for AWS' section: removed step-by-step instructions and root user security advice, replaced with link to AWS account guide.
Security assessment
Removed security best practices about root user access without adding equivalent guidance. The change reduces explicit security documentation, though it references external account management content. No vulnerability is addressed.
