Add pluggable component for health check feature #254

Description

@jeevatkm

The goal is to create a pluggable component for health check feature in aah.

Goals:

Design:

  • Create a go library
  • Spec:
    • Provide an interface for implementing health check reporter
      • interface method func Check() error
    • Provide a method to create new health check component
    • Provide methods to add one or more health check reporter into health check registry with or without interval duration to call
      • e.g.: hc.AddReporter(healthcheck.Config{/* report name, implementation based on above interface, duration, skip on error, etc... */})
    • Provide a method to register controller and route for the aah application (by domain name if multiple domains application)
      • For non-Kubernetes - accept URL relative path for the route - returns the response payload with status code
      • For Kubernetes - to add liveness and readiness endpoints (accept URL relative path for the route for both endpoints) - return only status code with empty body since Kubernetes only cares about status code
  • Status Codes for response
    • 200 OK if every registered health checker/reporter returns nil
    • 503 Service Unavailable if any registered checker/reporter return non-nil except skip on error

Sample response payload (a conceptual idea, yet to be finalized)

{
	"status": "OK", // OK or Service Unavailable
	"timestamp": "RFC3339 or ISO 8061", // yet to be decided
	"reportname": bool, // true or false, this line will be repeated for all registered health checker/reporter
}
