[Data Distillery UBKG API] Create lambda authorizer and integrate with UMLS key for API auth #126

Closed yuanzhou closed 2 months ago

We are moving away from the static API key to use UMLS key for API access control.

Create a new authorizer in AWS API Gateway and integrate with a Lambda function
Use "token" based lambda event via the Authorization HTTP header
The lambda function integrates with the UMLS key auth, same as UBKG Download
Set lambda function environment variables for UMLS configuration

@AlanSimmons FYI: this is a corresponding card to https://github.com/x-atlas-consortia/ubkg-api/issues/125

Once this change is in place, you'll need to update the test script to use Authorization: Bearer <UMLS-key> to replace the current instance of X-API-Key: <static-api-key> in the request header.
