The default encryption for CloudWatch Logs is not performed via a KMS AWS-managed key which is what is usually implied by "master key". Updating the documentation to clarify that this is server-side encryption hopefully clarifies why "KMS key ID" shows as "-" in the Console for created Log Groups and why the `cloudwatch-log-group-encrypted` Config Rule shows as non-compliant.
