Bug: jmespath is an undeclared dependency of Logger utility

[TonySherman]

Expected Behaviour

Powertools includes dependencies unless the feature states that it needs extras.

Current Behaviour

The Logger utility will not work without jmespath. Importing the logger causes the following error:
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'jmespath'

Code snippet

from aws_lambda_powertools.logging import Logger

logger = Logger()

logger.info('test')

Possible Solution

This issue is unlikely to cause problems in most cases. There are very few use cases where this code would be run somewhere that does not have jmespath available via boto/botocore.

It could be noted in the docs in the extra dependencies section.

Steps to Reproduce

• Create a new virtual environment:
  python -m venv .venv
• Activate environment
  source .venv/bin/activate
• Install Powertools with no extras
  pip install aws-lambda-powertools
• Run example code snippet.
