Add Plain HTTP Health Check Endpoint

[krapie]

What would you like to be added:

Currently, our system only has the ConnectRPC health check endpoint grpc.health.v1.Health/Check, which requires an HTTP POST request with an application/json header and an empty body. This type of health checking is not convenient for common uptime checkers, especially free 3rd-party uptime checkers.

To address this limitation, we should implement a simple Plain HTTP health check endpoint that can be accessed with an HTTP HEAD request for easier and more versatile health checking.

Why is this needed:

The current health check method is not user-friendly for common uptime checkers. Introducing a Plain HTTP health check endpoint will make it easier for users to monitor the health status of our system.

We need to add to also support NCP ALB. @hackerwins If we don't provide plain http health check endpoint, NCP ALB will exclude target from the load balancing target group.

Hello:) Could I work on this issue?

@krapie Are there any specific requirements or caveats to consider when setting up health checks in the Yorkie system?

[krapie]

@taeng0204 All we need to do is to implement HEAD or GET HTTP health check endpoint, but we want to minimize the change to implement this. Current ConnectRPC's health check endpoint requires POST method with body, but if we can tweak or change the behavior with something like interceptors, it will be great.

@krapie Thanks for the answer, but I thought that link was to the slack comment and it seems to have expired.

@taeng0204 Can you check it again?

[taeng0204]

@krapie Sorry, I tried a few times, but when I click on that link it says I can't see chats before April 17, 2024. No chats are specifically focused on either.

https://bufbuild.slack.com/archives/CRZ680FUH/p1713373023394579 The chats on this link are the oldest chats I can see.

Can you give me the keywords for those chats? Then I'll do a search.
