…guide (#244) * Update changelog with 0.9.5 entries and document changelog maintenance Add the missing 0.9.5 entries for the merged PRs: #239, #240, #241 and #242 as bug fixes, and #237 (CloudWatch log group retention) as an enhancement. Document the changelog maintenance rules in AGENTS.md so agents know how to add entries, and remove the outdated note that said the changelog must not be edited manually. Risk assessment: - Impact: documentation only, no runtime behavior changes. - Blast radius: CHANGELOG.md and AGENTS.md. - Regression risk: none, docs-only diff. - Rollback: revert this commit. * Updated changelog

Add
retention_in_daystoaws_cloudwatch_log_groupin thestandard-accountmodule for aws-elixir, aws-erlang and aws-gleam. Without this, AWS retains logs indefinitely by default, leading to unbounded storage costs.A new optional variable
log_retention_in_days(default: 30 days) is introduced in each module'svariables.tf. No existing callers need to be updated. The default of 30 days matches the value already used in the aws-elixir-db-certificate module, the only module that had retention configured prior to this change.Relates to the CloudWatch Logs Without Retention finding flagged in #236.
