Enhanced functionality for CCVPN and Network Slicing use case.

The ability to control the CRUD interactions by client as part of the configurable multi-tenancy work.

Enhanced User interface allowing users to browse, filter, and create dynamic complex queries with a visual builder. The User interface is schema-driven and can output results in card, table, visual, and downloadble formats.

Enhanced visualizations of the model with enhancements in GraphGraph including attribute descriptions in Papyrus.

Ease of maintenance since the AAI footprint was lessened, technologies updated, and code coverage increased.

Non-functional Updates
- Documentation of K8s Plugin API with Swagger

REQ-458: Refined Configuration API allows for flexible modification of the CNF configuration. Configuration API allows to create, modify and delete k8s resource templates and it allows their parameterization base on dedicated or inherited from the CNF instance input parameters.

REQ-458: Query API allows for the gathering of the filtered out the status of CNF what can be helpful to get precise information for particular resources belonging to the CNF. Query API produces results in the same format as Status API that offers the full set of information about CNF status.

REQ-458: HealthCheck API allows for the execution of dedicated healthcheck jobs (similar to helm test operation) that can verify on demand the current status of the CNF. The API can be used also to retrieved the results of healthcheck job execution, which can be extended with Status/Query API
