Add IAM to list of AWS permissions

What does this MR do?

Adds IAM to the list of permissions required by the IAM user for serverless deployments of an AWS Lambda function.

I tried deploying a Lambda function using only the three permissions listed (AWS Lambda, API Gateway, and CloudFormation), but my job failed with:

An error occurred: IamRoleLambdaExecution - API: iam:CreateRole User: arn:aws:iam::641962070086:user/SnowDayNotifier is not authorized to perform: iam:CreateRole on resource: arn:aws:iam::641962070086:role/gitlab-example-production-us-east-1-lambdaRole.

Here's the complete job log: https://gitlab.com/nfriend/snow-day-notifier/-/jobs/352540964

After adding IAMFullAccess, the deployment succeeded.
