Static type checker info

Expression of type "Dict[str, Any] | None" cannot be assigned to declared type "dict[str, list[str]]"
 Type "Dict[str, Any] | None" cannot be assigned to type "dict[str, list[str]]"
 "None" is incompatible with "dict[str, list[str]]"

Code snippet

import json
from aws_lambda_powertools.event_handler.router import ALBRouter
router = ALBRouter()
@router.get("/")
def get_headers() -> str:
 headers: dict[str, list[str]] = router.current_event.resolved_headers_field
 return json.dumps(headers)

### Possible Solution

Remove `Optional` 

```diff
- def resolved_headers_field(self) -> Optional[Dict[str, Any]]:
+ def resolved_headers_field(self) -> Dict[str, Any]:

Hi @wurstnase I'm not sure I follow this one. resolved_headers_field is currently marked as returning an Optional, meaning that in some cases it can return None. Shouldn't you handle that in your code instead of changing the API signature?

One could argue that checking the implementation, the field is always present. But due to Hyrum's Law I would prefer to add this to our v3 branch (more on that earlier next week).

@leandrodamascena I would appreciate your thoughts here too

Yes! I agree with you @rubenfonseca that we should avoid doing this now and tag this issue/pr as eligible for Powertools V3.

Hope that's ok with you @wurstnase. I'll add this to our v3 queue. I promise v3 is not far ahead ;)
