RFC: Further reduction of controller boilerplate (Phase 2 of removing ja_resource)

Bắt đầu bằng cách đọc khối quote của def controller, router.ex và các khai báo controller cho action_fallback, DataToAttributes và IdsToIntegers trong module CodeCorpsWeb. Theo dõi sự khác biệt hiện tại giữa các interface API và webhook. Công việc được xem là hoàn tất khi đã đi đến và ghi lại quyết định về ba thay đổi được đề xuất, không che giấu hành vi hoặc áp dụng nhầm plugs cho webhook.

We could do the following 3 items to further reduce boilerplate in controllers.

However, while boilerplate is reduced, all 3 of these actions also hide behavior which we may not want to hide.

Remove action_fallback CodeCorpsWeb.FallbackController from all controllers and instead move it into the CodeCorpsWeb module into the def controller quote block

This makes sense at first glance, but it does also put all of our controllers into basically the same basket, regardless of them being actual API controllers, or just webhook handlers, or something else entirely.

Unfortunately, it is not currently possible to specify multiple action fallbacks for the same controller, which would be an argument for doing this, since it would allow simultaneously specifying global and group-specific fallbacks.

Remove plug CodeCorpsWeb.Plug.DataToAttributes from all controllers and move it into router.ex into the :api pipeline.

We would have to separate our general api pipeline and the part of the pipeline that handles github and sprite webhooks, since we don't want this plug in that part, but it would make sense to do so anyway, since they are, in fact, different parts of the "interface".

Remove plug CodeCorpsWeb.Plug.IdsToIntegers from all controllers and move it into router.ex into the :api pipeline.

Basically same argument as above.

Really, these two plugs should be considered one pipeline, since their intention is to prepare and make sense of the data sent by our client.

What do you think? Overall, this would not take much time, maybe an hour, but I'm not really sure if it would help or hurt us.
