### Description This PR aims to add an Admin API specialized for Standalone mode to allow users to flush in-memory configurations through them. The user can pass in the configuration as JSON or YAML via HTTP PUT and it will: 1. Decode input 2. Check each item in the input against the resource's JSON schema 3. Broadcast them to every worker 4. Load them, and APISIX takes effect. This would make the stateless mode even more stateless, and it would no longer even depend on the file system. This will help our Ingress Controller use case. In addition to the UPDATE API, there is also a GET API for dumping configurations, which will return the current configuration version and configuration contents. However, the configuration content will be a deep copy replica of the input content, because APISIX will add internal data to the configuration, and since Lua passes table by reference, they will make it impossible to encode the data again. I.e., the data will be exported without any APISIX internal details, just to help you check what the current configuration is. #### Scope The scope of the API is all workers of the current APISIX instance, not the entire APISIX cluster. You need to call them on each instance to make them effective on the entire cluster. The configuration takes effect in its entirety, so new commits will overwrite the old configuration in its entirety; there is no diff mechanism. ### Checklist - [x] I have explained the need for this PR and the problem it solves - [x] I have explained the changes or the new features added to this PR - [x] I have added tests corresponding to this change - [x] I have updated the documentation to reflect this change - [x] I have verified that this change is backward compatible (If not, please discuss on the [APISIX mailing list](https://github.com/apache/apisix/tree/master#community) first) <!-- Note 1.
