[aws-lambda] Make AssetCode.fromAsset accept and zip multiple files and directory patterns

[asterikx]

Make lambda.AssetCode.fromAsset accept multiple files/directory patterns and transparently zip them.

Use Case

I have Lambda made up of a Go executable and multiple HTML templates that need to be zipped. But this also applies to any Lambda that needs to be ship with config or any other files.

Proposed Solution

Using variadic arguments (or arrays), we could specify multiple files/directories. The CDK would zip all matching files/folders transparently so that the user does not need to do this manually.

const code = new lambda.AssetCode(
  path.join(__dirname, './lambda/bin/sendemail'),
  path.join(__dirname, './mail/dist/*.html')
);
