This feature adds support for setting the removal policy of a dynamodb table.
It is common in CI environments to setup/teardown constructs, serverless can be particularly difficult to test due to requiring AWS stack to correctly run an E2E test. Currently it is not possible to remove a serverless stack and have the database removed via lift as the default strategy is to retain the database (to avoid accidental deletion), this default is sensible.
The default should always be used for production or persistent environments. The optional property here allows developers to opt into automatic deletion which for CI makes life easier rather than having to script clean up of databases separately.
