 - Fixed the response status code for the `/status` endpoint [#9210](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/9210).
   Before the fix, it always returned `200` even if the EMQX application was not running.  Now it returns `503` in that case.

+  Affected versions: `v4.3.21`, `v4.4.10`, `e4.3.16` and `e4.4.10`.
