Document how to deploy serverless functions to aws lambda

Problem to solve

We offer the ability for users to easily deploy serverless functions to Knative, however, we don't offer the same level of convenience for lambda (the most popular serverless solution today). Lambda users have to configure custom gitlab-ci.yml, IAM, S3, etc.

A simple solution currently supported is making use of the serverless framework with GitLab CI in order to deploy to lambda.

Target audience

• Sasha, Software Developer, https://design.gitlab.com/research/personas#persona-sasha

• Devon, DevOps Engineer, https://design.gitlab.com/research/personas#persona-devon

Proposal

1. Document how to deploy functions to lambda using serverless framework
