Isai 386c8f7e7a [New Rule] AWS GuardDuty Member Account Manipulation (#5688)
* [New Rule] AWS GuardDuty Member Account Manipulation

Detects attempts to manipulate GuardDuty member account relationships within AWS Organizations. This includes actions like `DisassociateFromAdministratorAccount`, `DeleteMembers`, `StopMonitoringMembers`, and `DeleteInvitations` that break centralized security visibility. These actions are often precursors to or alternatives for fully deleting GuardDuty detectors, allowing adversaries to operate undetected in member accounts. The idea for this rule was inspired by defense evasion techniques highlighted in Permiso's research on Scattered Spider, and expanded to include other relevant API calls that could be abused for the same purpose.

Existing Related Coverage: We already detect `DeleteDetector` via defense_evasion_guardduty_detector_deletion.toml. This new rule complements that coverage by catching the manipulation of GuardDuty member relationships, actions that break org-level visibility without requiring full detector deletion.
