AWS SDK v3 Support (v2 deprecation)

[throrin19]

Problem Statement

Actually, @sentry/serverless package use the aws-sdk v2. It results on this warnings when testing in local with serverless-offline :

(node:49034) NOTE: We are formalizing our plans to enter AWS SDK for JavaScript (v2) into maintenance mode in 2023.
Please migrate your code to use AWS SDK for JavaScript (v3).
For more information, check the migration guide at https://a.co/7PzMCcy

With lambdas using the node18 runtime, the sdk available is the v3, not the v2. To be able to use the sdk in v2, it must be included in the package, which makes the size of each lambdas quite substantial.

Solution Brainstorm

Use the sdk v3. But, with that, we have the problem of compatibility between aws node runtime < node18 using the sdk v2 and aws node runtime >= node18 using the sdk v3

Hi @throrin19 thanks for writing in!

Sounds like we can't upgrade to the v3 SDK at the moment without dropping support for Node <18 on AWS Lambda. So we can't do this without releasing a major and even then it partially goes against our philosophy of supporting old runtimes as long as possible. On the other hand, I get that this warning is concerning. I'm going to backlog this issue and add it to the "Up for Discussion" tasks for our next major.
