feat(lock): Add HTTP support for Distributed Locking

[nad-au]

I'm using SDK v2.4.2 and latest dapr self-host docker images. When I call the lock & configuration APIs such as lock.tryLock or configuration.get it returns HTTP is currently not supported.

I've created components as per docs all using Redis. State APIs, pubsub etc. all working fine. I am using Dapr with HTTP from a NestJs app.

There is a Note here https://docs.dapr.io/developing-applications/building-blocks/configuration/howto-manage-configuration/ which states that only supports gRPC. There isn't a similar note in the Distributed Locks documentation. Perhaps its worth annotating the APIs to make it clear which protocols are supported. Does seem rather strange though that configuration supports only gRPC when it is similar to state store.

Yes, the configuration API only supports gRPC but the Distributed Lock has HTTP support - https://v1-10.docs.dapr.io/reference/api/distributed_lock_api/ - have updated the issue title to clarify the intent of this issue.

It is expected to get HTTP support once it moves to stable from alpha. Also there is an open issue which will be useful to document it more clearly dapr/docs#2526
