Implement NetApp ONTAP REST API Client

Registered by Lucio Seki

Currently, NetApp ONTAP Cinder driver implements ZAPI client [0] to communicate with ONTAP back ends.
ZAPI client code sends HTTP(S) POST methods carrying XML data describing the operation to be issued, and receives responses containing XML data to be parsed.

ONTAP >= 9.6 provides a RESTful API [1] as an alternative to ZAPI.
This blueprint is to implement RESTful API client in the ONTAP Cinder driver to communicate with ONTAP back ends.
