This is a big PR which migrates our backend to the modern FAST API. Our existing Flask based code was cluttered and had made it very less extensible. The new fastapi based backend makes it very structured an modular.
Now our all endpoints are as per standard REST API guidelines.
The existing Flask backend was also very tricky to write end to end tests. The new backend also makes things easily testable and tests would follow this PR.
It also provides a self generated api documentation endpoint (/api/docs) which would help in integrating custom build server with external services like ground control stations in future.
