Add Smoke Testing to the CI pipeline

[jlvoiseux]

Following the deployment of a broken release (v1.0.1), it has been suggested to introduce smoke testing to the repository. These smoke tests would take inspiration from elastic-lambda-extension-testing and would be implemented via Terraform. A possible process outline would be as follows:

• Build the Lambda layer
• Spin up an APM-instrumented Lambda function behind an API Gateway
• Attach the extension layer to the function
• Perform 2 invocations (in order to also check metrics generation)
• Check a dedicated ES instance for the presence of target documents

An implementation of SAM CLI-based E2E testing already exists, but since the SAM CLI does not support the Lambda Logs API used for Metrics, its relevance will decrease by the time we release v1.1.

We might want to take some inspiration from https://github.com/cyrille-leclerc/my-serverless-shopping-cart/tree/main/checkout-function/deploy, which uses https://registry.terraform.io/modules/terraform-aws-modules/lambda/aws/latest

@cachedout would someone from your team be able to help out with the CI setup for the newly added smoke tests once #296 is finalized)?

Reopening this - we can close it once the CI integration has been done.

@simitt Apologies, this one slipped through my filters. It looks like this has been done by @kruskall in #310 and that it's currently under review. Is there anything needed beyond that?

Nothing more to do here.
