What this PR does / why we need it:

Adds REST API endpoints for managing entities, data sources, and feature views
via the registry server. These endpoints are part of the control plane API,
enabling create/apply and delete operations over HTTP without needing a direct
gRPC connection.

Endpoints added:

  • GET/POST/DELETE /entities — list, apply, and delete entities
  • GET/POST/DELETE /data-sources — list, apply, and delete data sources
  • GET/POST/DELETE /feature-views — list, apply, and delete feature views

Replaces earlier proto-based approach with a clean REST layer backed by the
existing gRPC registry handler.

Which issue(s) this PR fixes:

I see both try and except block has same code, couldn't simply batch_source_proto = DataSourceProto(name=body.batch_source) will work ?

@ntkathole I am not sure why the tests are failing. Do you have any idea about this?

I think we should not send explicit values if it's not available, it may change behavior

same as above false value may get passed. If user sends "ttl_seconds": 0 (features never expire), which is valid ttl value, it will be silently dropped.
