Docs. CLOUDSTACK-737. Documentation for security groups in advanced zones. In about-security-groups.xml, add 1 sentence: "In advanced zones, security groups are supported only on the KVM hypervisor." This replaces a sentence that states they are supported only in basic zones. New section: security-groups-advanced-zones.xml. In security-groups.xml: include the new section.
