Merge appsync-emulator-serverless with serverless-appsync-offline about aws-utils HOT 3 OPEN

Not opposed to this but when we built this library initially the conversations we had (some with aws) included using the code with other platforms than serverless. I still have vague dreams to do this so I would be very open to refactoring to make this lib easier to use with serverless as a plugin but I am less supportive of a future where this only works with serverless. I would like to move in the opposite direction where we can integrate with other platforms such as the new amplify tooling/plugins.

@lightsofapollo I get your point; and I agree.
In that case we should move in a direction where createServer receives normalized object containing all the info needed: schema, datasources, templates.

Then anything using the emulator your be responsible of normalizing the input and pass it to the emulator.

In this case, the appsync-offline plugin would extract the info from the serverless instance, normalize it, and inject it into the emulator.

@bboure I love that approach!
