AWS signin: Rename 'social login' to 'third-party login' in account recovery entry
Summary
The AWS Builder ID account recovery changelog entry was reworded so that 'a social login you can no longer access' now reads 'a third-party login you can no longer access'. The described recovery capabilities (forgotten password, lost MFA device, recovery email on the Security page) are unchanged.
Security assessment
Only the phrase 'social login' was replaced with 'third-party login' in an existing document-history entry about account recovery. The recovery flows and any security implications are unchanged; this is a benign editorial consistency update with no new security guidance or vulnerability remediation.
