Maintenance: Support for Node.js 22 AWS Lambda managed runtime

[dreamorosi]

Summary

As stated I the Developer Guide for AWS Lambda, the Node.js 22 managed runtime is slated to be released in November 2024.

While this date is indicative only and subject to change, we should start working towards adding support for the runtime in Powertools for AWS Lambda (TypeScript).

Why is this needed?

So that we can migrate the project to use Node.js 22 as development environment and include the version in our test matrixes.
