Pull request overview

Updates the PowerShell security features documentation to better distinguish “security features” from “defense-in-depth” items and to clarify the status of App Control for Business vs. AppLocker within Microsoft’s security servicing criteria context.

Changes:

• Updated the page metadata date to reflect the current edit.
• Expanded the “Application Control” section to describe AppLocker as a legacy, still-supported technology and to contrast it with App Control for Business.
• Refined the “Security Servicing Criteria” section wording and added detail around defense-in-depth constrained language mode scenarios.
