Common:
- Normalized report_coverage_*.sh scripts, and temporarily summarized results in device one for testing purposes.
- Adapted run_tests_locally.sh script for testing purposes
- Improved message synthesis of ServiceException

Context:
- Improved ConfigModel helper functions

Device (intermediate backup):
- Removed DataCache since it reduces readability of the code. Moved database one level up.
- Improved ServicerImpl and moved DataCache functionality over there.
- Added condition to prevent AddDevice request from carrying a configuration.
- Multiple pre-work required for processing configuration differences in DeviceServiceServicerImpl.

Common:
- Improvements in Database API definition and unit tests
- Implemented additional Assertions to be used by unitary tests

Context and Device:
- Improved logging of errors.

Service:
- Implemented service methods (except GetConnectionList). All methods are under active debug.
- Partially implemented unitary tests

Common:
- renamed report_coverage.sh script to report_coverage_all.sh

Common/DatabaseAPI:
- improved root class validations and test units
- added _RootEntity interface
- improved definition of Context database API entities

Context service:
