feat: Create controller shell and schema model for new workflow API (#11111)

* feat: Create controller shell and schema model for new workflow API

- Add workflow API endpoints (POST /workflow, GET /workflow, POST /workflow/stop)
- Implement developer API protection with settings check
- Add comprehensive workflow schema models with proper validation
- Create extensive unit test suite covering all scenarios
- Apply Ruff linting standards and fix all code quality issues
- Support API key authentication for all workflow endpoints

* fix: Move developer API check to router-level dependency

* [autofix.ci] apply automated fixes

* [autofix.ci] apply automated fixes (attempt 2/3)

* fix: Remove response model as its automatically configured.

* [autofix.ci] apply automated fixes
