AWS storagegateway: Fix URL formatting in IMDSv2 documentation links
Summary
Corrected extra slashes in URLs linking to EC2 IMDSv2 documentation.
Security assessment
The change only fixes URL syntax (removes double slashes) without altering security content. The existing text about IMDSv2 mitigating vulnerabilities remains unchanged.
Evidence
-The instance metadata service (IMDS) is an on-instance component that provides secure access to Amazon EC2 instance metadata. An instance can be configured to accept incoming metadata requests that use IMDS Version 1 (IMDSv1) or require that all metadata requests use IMDS Version 2 (IMDSv2). IMDSv2 uses session-oriented requests and mitigates several types of vulnerabilities that could be used to try to access the IMDS. For information about IMDSv2, see [How Instance Metadata Service Version 2 works](https://docs.aws.amazon.com//AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/instance-metadata-v2-how-it-works.html) in the _Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud User Guide_.
