Isai d6ed1cd811 [Rule Deprecations] AWS RDS Lifecycle Rules and Outdated APIs (#5350)
#### Deprecate RDS DB Instance/Cluster lifecycle detections

`CreateDBInstance`, `CreateDBCluster`, `StopDBInstance`, `StopDBCluster`. These events occur frequently in normal workflows and do not reflect known attacker techniques. They are simply RDS lifecycle operations, with no real impact from an attacker-target perspective. These actions don't have a meaningful benefit for an attacker or cause a meaningful impact for a target. Threat activity around RDS is typically centered around snapshot sharing, export, and public exposure, which is already covered by other rules. There is also a theoretical case to be made for detecting destructive actions against RDS resources like `instance|cluster|snapshot Deletion`, this is covered by other rules. Removing these creation and stoppage rules reduces noise and keeps the AWS ruleset more aligned with real threat surfaces rather than infrastructure management.

#### Deprecate Outdated DBSecurityGroup API rules

`CreateDBSecurityGroup` and `DeleteDBSecurityGroup` were only used by RDS deployments on EC2-Classic, which AWS has fully retired. Modern RDS uses VPC Security Groups, making these APIs obsolete. These rules can no longer trigger and provide no threat-detection value.
Network-permission manipulation is fully covered by our existing VPC Security Group rule - "AWS EC2 Security Group Configuration Change".
