Isai 1e777d9be7 [Rule Tuning] AWS STS Role Assumption by User (#5796)
* [Rule Tuning] AWS STS Role Assumption by User

Removed AssumedRole from the `aws.cloudtrail.user_identity.type` filter to eliminate redundancy with the AWS STS Role Chaining rule. The AWS STS Role Chaining rule already covers AssumedRole identity types assuming other roles. This change ensures each rule has distinct coverage without overlapping alerts.

- Changed query filter from `aws.cloudtrail.user_identity.type: ("AssumedRole" or "IAMUser")` to `aws.cloudtrail.user_identity.type: "IAMUser"`
- Updated description to clarify the rule focuses on user-initiated role assumptions
- Minor formatting fixes to investigation guide headings

* reducing new_terms fields

reducing new_terms fields to only use "aws.cloudtrail.user_identity.arn" since we do not have to account for roles, this field is unique for IAMUsers

rules/

Rules within this folder are organized by solution or platform. The structure is flattened out, because nested file hierarchies are hard to navigate and find what you're looking for. Each directory contains several .toml files, and the primary ATT&CK tactic is included in the file name when it's relevant (i.e. windows/execution_via_compiled_html_file.toml)
