This commit is not a final implementation, just an intermediate backup.

Fixing two issues with the previous commit: i) obtaining the correct service gRPC port; ii) updating the gitlab ci file to use the correct service port.

- added unit testing into automated unit testing processes

- Finished preliminary implementation of Emulated Driver
- Emulated Driver uses APScheduler to emulate subscriptions
- Implemented basic unitary testing for Device Driver API
- Still pending to integrate Driver API within Device service

- Implemented GetConfig/SetConfig/DeleteConfig
- Implemented unit tests for GetConfig/SetConfig/DeleteConfig
- Implementing simple DiscriteEventSimulator to emulate monitoring
- Remains to implement SubscribeState/UnsubscribeState/GetState
- Remains to implement unit tests for SubscribeState/UnsubscribeState/GetState

This commit is just a backup.

- Added REST API Server to Compute component
- Factorized get settings from environment variabes into common method get_setting

Fix renaming of compute.proto methods from snake-case to camel-case. Added minor naming improvements.
