Tim are going to remove target: 'serverless' option in nextJS

Hello guys,
I noticed vercel are going to remove the target: 'serverless' option in the future, in my understand, we are still using this option to generate a customize pack.
NextJS have a new feature called "output files trace", and a new option called outputStandalone. @iiroj ii have just create a PR using this option to compile the next, thanks his effort!
But for now, this option is still experimental. I don't know if vercel will remove it one day...
Any idea about deploying it in newer nextJS version?

I managed to get a PoC working, and the PR reflects that.

Basically the change means that instead of the lambda handler importing a serverless page and running its renderPage method, it has to spin up a Next.js server and directly handle the request.

The PoC is still missing all the sls-next features from around it, as I haven't had any time to move forward with it... maybe I should now pick up the effort, unless someone wants to take over. 😄

Thank you very much @iiroj .
We may change the deployment method if nextJS remove serverless target permanently.
