[vale] reported by reviewdog 🐶 [Docker.HeadingSentenceCase] Use sentence case for headings: 'awslogs-create-stream'. Raw Output: {"message": "[Docker.HeadingSentenceCase] Use sentence case for headings: 'awslogs-create-stream'.", "location": {"path": "content/manuals/engine/logging/drivers/awslogs.md", "range": {"start": {"line": 130, "column": 5}}}, "severity": "WARNING"}

By default, the log driver creates the AWS CloudWatch Logs stream used for container log persistence.

Set `awslogs-create-stream` to `false` to disable log stream creation. When disabled, the Docker daemon assumes
the log stream already exists. A use case where this is beneficial is when log stream creation is handled by
another process avoiding redundant AWS CloudWatch Logs API calls.

If `awslogs-create-stream` is set to `false` and the log stream does not exist, log persistence to CloudWatch
fails during container runtime, resulting in `Failed to put log events` error messages in daemon logs.

```console
$ docker run \
--log-driver=awslogs \
--log-opt awslogs-region=us-east-1 \
--log-opt awslogs-group=myLogGroup \
--log-opt awslogs-stream=myLogStream \
--log-opt awslogs-create-stream=false \
...
