Bug: unable to use Lambda Layer with ESM bundles

[dreamorosi]

Expected Behaviour

When attaching the v2 Lambda Layer with a Lambda function that uses ESM bundles the function should work normally.

Current Behaviour

When the conditions above are met, the function crashes at startup due to the fact that the code in the Lambda Layer containing an import using the require keyword in the Tracer provider.

The stack trace of the error suggests that the issue will happen even if a polyfill banner is used.

This seems to be due to the banner being included in the customer bundle while the layer code being evaluated/required before that.
