Add Extension for AWS Alexa Skill Kit (ASK SDK v2 for Java)

[HemanandRajamani]

Adding the extension for AWS Alexa Skill Kit (ASK SDK v2 for Java) will enable supersonic start up of the aws lambda function and will help Alexa skills to get around the cold start delay without compromising the use of the already existing quarkus extensions.

@marcinczeczko is there something that make sense to add to your AWS services extensions?

@gsmet - Alexa sdk is a different SDK. I didn't consider it, but it's worth to look at at some point in the future

Up to this point I managed to use Quarkus to implement an Alexa skill, not natively. Unfortunately, though, it seems to be that when I try to make it native, the compilation fails because of references to unsupported methods (mostly from java.lang.Thread).
I have opened an issue on StackOverflow (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/59531126/native-quarkus-with-aws-lambda-does-not-build/59576326#59576326). No luck for the moment.

All in all, I managed to implement a fully functional Alexa Skill using Quarkus native.
You can find all the details here.
Hope this help to move forward to the implementation of an extension.

Closing because we have a Quarkiverse extension for this.
