Greptile Summary

This PR improves the AWS Connection documentation by replacing a brief, vague one-liner with a properly formatted <Note> component that clearly explains automatic credential retrieval when Infisical is running on AWS compute.

Key changes:

• Adds a <Note> block explicitly stating that static credentials are not required when INF_APP_CONNECTION_AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID / INF_APP_CONNECTION_AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY env vars are absent
• Enumerates supported AWS credential sources: instance profile (EC2), task role (ECS), and IRSA (EKS)
• Clarifies that the manual IAM User setup steps that follow only apply to non-AWS deployments (adds bold emphasis to not)
• Content is technically accurate and aligns with the AWS SDK default credential provider chain behavior

Confidence Score: 5/5

• Documentation-only change with accurate technical content; safe to merge.
• Single MDX file changed with a well-scoped, technically accurate documentation improvement. No code logic, security concerns, or breaking changes involved.
• No files require special attention.
