Adds a documentation-history entry noting that Account Factory for Terraform (AFT) now supports plan-only (read-only) customization runs via the `plan_only` input, with plan output exported to an encrypted Amazon S3 bucket by default on the Community Edition distribution and opt-in on Terraform Cloud/Enterprise.

Security assessment

This is a changelog entry announcing a read-only plan mode and encrypted S3 export of plan output. It mentions encryption and read-only behavior but documents a feature release, not a fix for a specific vulnerability or a new security control; no CVE or incident is referenced.
