experiment: prototyping new ASP.NET-like controllers;

feat: ControllerMethod struct for storing data about an individual API endpoint;
feat: controllerImpl struct for setting up a controller;
feat: GetRequest method for parsing and validating a request with automatic abortion on binding/validation errors
