AWS eks: Add doc-history entries for CimFS snapshotter and NVIDIA AMI
Summary
Adds two changelog rows: CimFS containerd snapshotter support on EKS-optimized Windows Server 2025 AMIs (opt-in, Kubernetes 1.35+), and the EKS-optimized AL2023 NVIDIA AMI bundling two NVIDIA driver versions for g7 instance support.
Security assessment
These are release-note/changelog entries about image pull performance and driver bundling. No vulnerability, CVE, or security control is referenced, so this is a non-security documentation update.
