### Describe the bug

Our team has experienced a crippling number of git merge conflicts since migrating to amplify 5.x. The main conflicts are all surrounding the env field in the lambda layers key in the function params

```
{
"lambdaLayers": [
{
"type": "ProjectLayer",
"resourceName": "reportingShared",
"version": "Always choose latest version",
"isLatestVersionSelected": true,
"env": "CONFLICT IN THIS FIELD"
}
]
}
```

In our workflow, each dev has their own environment. We rebase from master, run "amplify env checkout ENV" and then develop, the merge conflicts arise when we land our PRs back onto master branch.

### Expected behavior

cleaner development experience with less conflicts, or a tool to help us resolve conflicts easier.

### Reproduction steps

use new layer versions in a multi env team.
