feat: Set up the Fastapi project

[frgfm]

This PR aims at setting up the fastAPI project by:

• setting up a basic fastapi project structure
• adding routes for users, sites, events, devices, media, installations and alerts
• adding CI jobs for lint checking, deps installation, docker container tests

Here is how the documentation renders:

Also, once the fastapi server is run, it can be easily accessed using postman for instance:

As of now, I implemented the CRUD methods for each route but only added unittests for the "users" route. I'll open up another PR to conduct unittests on the remaining routes.

Any feedback is welcome!

FYI: there is an option to work on an admin page over there

Looks good to me althought I have a shallow understanding of fastapi.
You may wish to wait for a more knowledgeable reviewer.

Great job @frgfm I could play with the API thanks to docker-compose really quickly, well done ! FastAPI seems to get more and more partisans so it should not be a problem to find resources/tuto/etc.

Maybe the way it is designed right now is a bit monolithic and should be okay for MVP, a more sustainable option could be using microservices like described in this article but it may be not the priority thinking about scalability 🙂

Nice PR (full of unittest :) ) !
I am not very familiar with fastapi yet, but as a start this design suits me (and let's dig a little deeper into the possibility of using microservices)
