Feature request: isolate exports for middleware in core utilities

[dreamorosi]

Use case

Currently the three core utilities export the Middy middlewares as part of their barrel file (aka index.ts). This means that whenever a customer imports the utility (i.e. import { Logger } from '@aws-lambda-powertools/logger';) the corresponding Middy middleware gets imported and loaded regardless of whether it's going to be used or not.

Newer utilities like Idempotency already moved away from this pattern and instead export the middleware separately using the exports field in the package.json, i.e. import { makeHandlerIdempotent } from '@aws-lambda-powertools/idempotency/middleware';.

With version 2 coming, it's now a good time to make this change also in the base utilities.

Solution/User Experience

Change the following:

import { logMetrics } from '@aws-lambda-powertools/metrics';
import { injectLambdaContext } from '@aws-lambda-powertools/logger';
import { captureLambdaHandler } from '@aws-lambda-powertools/tracer';

to

import { logMetrics } from '@aws-lambda-powertools/metrics/middleware';
import { injectLambdaContext } from '@aws-lambda-powertools/logger/middleware';
import { captureLambdaHandler } from '@aws-lambda-powertools/tracer/middleware';
