Before this commit, the backend could not handle the test context for
message_validation_failed events that could be sent from the dashboard
since no handling code for this contexts existed in the backend. This
has now been fixed by adding such handling code.

The rule engine unescape function should convert the escape sequence \a
to the alarm bell symbol (ASCII 7). This bug was created as it was
assumed that Erlang convert $\a to 7 but Erlang does not handle the \a
escape sequence and instead convert it to 97 (ASCII code for a).

* Simpler handling of true and false in best effort JSON formatter
* inet:ntoa/1 to format IP addresses
* Made a record for lazy formatted trace values and formatter to improve
maintainability
* Added callback to format return value from connector
* Extended test case to check that the format return value callback
works
* Added handling of "lazy" trace entry data to the text formatter. Do we
need to handle this data in the normal log formatters as well?
* The code for passing the trace context to a sub process has been
improved to increase code reuse. This code is used when the action
templates are rendered in a sub process.
* A macro has also been added for the error term that is thrown when the
action shall be stopped after the templates has been rendered. This is
also done to reduce code duplication and to reduce the risk of
introducing bugs due to typos.
* Fix incorrect type spec
Thanks to @zmstone for suggesting these improvements in comments to a PR
(https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/12916).
Previously a batch of requests that was sent to a connector could
contain both requests with the stop_after_rendering flag and requests
without this flag. When this happened a warning message was generated and
the stop_after_render flags for the batch would be ignored. This commit
fixes so that a mixed batch is never created so there is no longer any
need for a warning message or ignoring flags.
This commit changes the default value for the
stop_action_after_template_rendering option of the apply rule HTTP API
endpoint so that it is true instead of false.
This commit makes the apply rule HTTP API option to stop an action work
for the HTTP action, and adds infrastructure that makes it easy to add
this functionality to other actions.
This commit adds:
* Support for forwarding the rule id and client id to the connector so
that events such as template rendered successfully can be traced.
* HTTP API for for applying/activating a rule with the given context
