AWS athena documentation change

Service: athena · 2026-06-07 · Documentation low

File: athena/latest/ug/jdbc-v3-driver-browser-saml-credentials.md

Added 'Enable token caching' parameter and updated related authentication references

Security assessment

Identical to previous Azure AD change - usability enhancement without security impact. Caching tokens in-memory doesn't introduce new security documentation.
