AWS permissions for the Connector

Summary

In the Cloud Backup permissions and descriptions: https://docs.netapp.com/us-en/bluexp-setup-admin/reference-permissions-aws.html#backup-and-recovery
Please note that the first section that has ec2:StartInstances through cloudformation:DescribeStacks, this was needed when we had a separate VM that was deployed to do singe file restore.
With our newer updated architecture, this functionality is containerized in the connector VM, so we no longer need to launch a VM that way.
This is causing customer confusion.
I think we should be able to remove all of those from the doc, they are not listed on the Backup pages.

@nichollri,

I removed the list from the section in the docs that describes how we use the permissions. However, the product team needs to update the policy itself. This will require internal follow ups with engineering.
