This change updates all references to the deprecated `data.aws_region.current.name` attribute to use `data.aws_region.current.region` instead, as required for AWS provider v6.0+ compatibility. The AWS provider v6 deprecated the `name` attribute in favor of `region` for the aws_region data source. This change ensures compatibility with current and future AWS provider versions. Changes: - Updated 8 occurrences in data.tf where data.aws_region.current.name was used in IAM policy document ARN constructions Fixes warnings: ``` Warning: Deprecated attribute The attribute "name" is deprecated. Refer to the provider documentation for details. ``` References: - AWS Provider v6 Upgrade Guide: https://registry.terraform.io/providers/hashicorp/aws/latest/docs/guides/version-6-upgrade#data-source-aws_region
