Ability to pass path (relative/absolute) of requirements file #86
Description
My current usage of python-lambda uses a common requirements.txt file for all my lambda functions. Instead of placing the requirements.txt file in the function directory. Can I just add the ability to pass my own requirements.txt file instead of being forced to put the requirements.txt file in the function directory.

For context, this is my project structure:
`-LambdaFunctionFolder1
-service.py
-requirements.txt
-config.yaml
-LambdaFunctionFolder2
-service.py
-requirements.txt
-config.yaml`
Instead of that I would like to make the project look like this:
`-Functions
-requirements.txt
`
I am looking at the code and it looks like it should be an easy fix. I can work on this if this is something you guys want added to project.

@karthich - any work on this? I want something similar. I can submit a PR but I don't want to step on your toes if you have something in progress.
What will the interface look like? afaict the click library doesn't support a parameter with an optional argument, so will
--use-requirementsbe changed to be--requirements PATH? That will break backwards compatibility, but other than that seems to be the right change.karthich commentedon Feb 23, 2018
Yes. Will submit a PR this weekend. Sorry been super busy at work.

@karthich - I ended up making the changes locally to get stuff going on my end. If you haven't started on it, I'm happy to submit mine. Just let me know.

If you've already done it locally, I don't want to duplicate your work. Go ahead and submit yours. Thanks!
