Improve documentation of ignore-policy

[YuriGal]

I am trying to create an exception for AVD-AWS-0088, but can get it in a proper format. Could you please provide an example of ignoring a specific AWS rule? Can it be applied to a specific resource only?

Thanks for the report. I hope the info in this discussion helped you. I'll keep this issue open for improving the docs in that area. at the very least clarify what is input

It's not really ignore policy - if I am not mistaken that applies to vulnerabilities only. I am looking into misconfiguration and exceptions to rules. Basically something like this but for AWS and CloudFormation.

Ignore policy and ignore file works for misconfigurations also, as shown in the other thread

while we're revisiting this doc, we used to refer to this as "exceptions" to be conftest friendly, but we're no longer. The flag is called ignore-policy, so doc needs refresh accordingly

I've started a thread to discuss this doc as part of a bigger picture #3620
