Towards a GUI: Implementing a REST API

[domna]

This is more of a discussion thread to follow on our discussion in the meeting. We agreed that we eventually would like to have a gui for pyElli. A first step could be to implement a REST API for pyElli to interact with any frontend. I think the best technology for us would be fastAPI.

The question here is should we integrate this directly into pyElli or should we add this as a separate package, e.g., pyRElli 😎?
