Documentation PR for apache/cloudstack#10856

ACL Lists

  1. Replace ACL Lists with ACLs as Access Control List Lists doesn't make sense
  2. Replace Add ACL with Add ACL rule wherever a rule is being added

User data

  1. Following industry conventions, User data should be written as two words
  2. The term "User Data" used in the main menu creates some confusion, whether it is singular or plural. So renamed it to "User Data Library" where users can register new User Data.
  3. User data should not be followed by "a"

general remark; user data, User data and User Data seem to be used interchangably. maybe cleanup?
also I suggest a global replace of "ACL rule" with "access rule"

Thanks for the review @DaanHoogland
I have cleaned up user data (there were also many instances where 'user-data' was being used. Have replaced it with 'user data'). Also, I had missed updating the screenshots earlier.

I’m not entirely convinced about using “access rule”. It feels like a more generic term and might be unclear without proper context. Other platforms, like AWS, use the term “ACL rules,” so I’d prefer to stick with that for clarity and consistency.
