Fork the code into a self-contained implementation which is packaged entirely into the Lambda function's code, without external runtime dependencies.

This may be done thorugh a port to one of the lambda-based frameworks such as apex, serverless or sparta, after investigating which one of those is the best for us.

The goal is to be able to run without any runtime dependencies
- everything is now self-contained, included in the Lambda zip file
- no more runtime downloads of data from external infrastructure
- more reliable, everything is available out of the box
- stable software, no longer auto-updates behind the user's back
- remove dependency on UPX, since the size no longer matters so much
- saving some execution time and a few pennies spent on bandwidth
- lots of Lambda wrapper cleanups, the wrapper code is now 3x smaller
- some build system cleanups and improvements
- introduced a command-line argument to avoid hard-coding the
  instances.json file name

Downside: the users need to update the CloudFormation stack in order to
update the software to the latest version
