[In progress] Implemented hashed TurbiniaRequest and TurbiniaTask in Redis

[Igor8mr]

Description of the change

I am implementing the TurbiniaRequest hash object in Redis, which stores information about a request. I am also converting the TurbiniaTask objects to hashes, which will make the server more efficient.

Hey @aarontp, I just finished implementing the TurbiniaRequest and TurbiniaTask, but I still need to do plenty of tests with those and fix some issues, so I think it's better to wait until I mark it as ready. Thank you!

hey @Igor8mr - Just checking in to see if you still plan on completing this PR. Otherwise, I'm happy to continue where you left off. Thanks!

Hey @jleaniz, thanks for checking in! Sorry for the delay with the pull request, I have been busy with college recently, so I couldn't finish it yet. The changes are mostly done, with the requests being saved in Redis and the API using it to gather information instead of the tasks, which is faster now. The tasks are also converted to hashes, but the API also works for old tasks that are stored as strings. I just needed to fix an issue making the API not gather the information correctly, which makes it not display anything on the website. I also still need to test it more and create unit tests to see if everything else is working fine. If you can help me with these, that would be great, thanks! I can also join you on a call if you want to so I can explain the code better. Thanks again!
