Invoke Lambda function asynchronously

Accept a Lambda Event invocation (HTTP 202). Provider acceptance is not function completion; Lambda may retry failures and deliver duplicates, so handlers must be idempotent with a failure destination or DLQ. Payload is JSON text capped at 256 KiB. Unsafe with one SDK attempt and no client dispatch retry. Excluded from MCP. Requires lambda:InvokeFunction.
