AWS govcloud-us documentation change

Service: govcloud-us · 2026-06-04 · Documentation low

File: govcloud-us/latest/UserGuide/govcloud-workspaces.md

Summary

Restructured documentation with updated section headers, rephrased limitations (e.g., 'not supported' to 'not available'), added missing bullet points, and reorganized content flow.

Security assessment

Changes clarify existing limitations (like password reset unavailability) but don't introduce new security features or address vulnerabilities. The 'Forgot Password' note describes an existing operational constraint, not a new security concern.
