In v64.0.0 `GuParameterStoreReadPolicy` became a singleton scoped to an `App`. This change stops hard-coding the `PolicyName` property, reverting to AWS default behaviour. This is because `AWS::IAM::Policy` resources in a CFN stack must have a unique policy name.

What does this change?
In #2929
GuParameterStoreReadPolicybecame a singleton scoped to anApp. This change stops hard-coding thePolicyNameproperty, reverting to AWS default behaviour. This is becauseAWS::IAM::Policyresources in a CFN stack must have a unique policy name. If a CFN stack has two applications (e.g.apiandfrontend) we need twoAWS::IAM::Policy's each with their ownPolicyName.How to test
See updated snapshots.
How can we measure success?
Supporting multiple apps in a single CFN stack. For example https://github.com/guardian/cdk-playground/blob/main/cdk/lib/cdk-playground.ts.
Have we considered potential risks?
This is a functional no-op, however clients would need to update their snapshots.
