> We would like to implement APIs to safely stop, start, and restart local connected Cassandra instances through Cassandra Sidecar in a generic way. This could lead to future work to implement Cassandra native rolling restarts in Sidecar and automate the Cassandra upgrade process. 
> We propose implementing an {{AbstractLifecycleOperationsHandler}} interface that defines start, stop, restart, and status endpoints to allow Sidecar operators to implement their own lifecycle handlers, depending on how they host their Cassandra processes. To provide a default implementation, we would create a {{LocalProcessLifecycleOperationsHandler}} to implement this interface and provide lifecycle operations for OS native Cassandra processes. This could be defined as the default lifecycle manager in {{{}sidecar.yaml{}}}, disabled by default.
> We propose the following APIs, leveraging the {{OperationalJob}} interface to provide support for async non-blocking jobs. We will use the existing implemented {{OperationalJobRoute}} , {{/api/v1/cassandra/operational-jobs/:operationId}} , to track the status of these jobs. These endpoints will live under a {{/node}} path to specify operations on the local connected Cassandra instance, allowing for future development of lifecycle endpoints for an entire Cassandra cluster:
> h5. *GET /api/v1/cassandra/operations/lifecycle/node/status*
> Gets the status of whether the local Cassandra process is running. 
> h6. Response
>  * 200 Ok
>  ** {{cassandra_running :: bool}}
>  * 500 Internal Sever Error
>  ** {{error :: string}}
> h5. *POST /api/v1/cassandra/operations/lifecycle/node/start*
> Start the connected Cassandra process. This request will succeed if the process is already started to ensure idempotency.
> h6. Parameters
>  * {{block :: boolean (default False)}}
> h6. Response
>  * 202 Accepted
>  ** {{operationId :: string}}
>  * 500 Internal Sever Error
>  ** {{error :: string}}
> h5. *POST /api/v1/cassandra/operations/lifecycle/node/stop*
> Stop the connected Cassandra process after a pluggable health check passes. This request will succeed if the process is already stopped to ensure idempotency. 
> h6. Parameters
>  * {{block :: boolean (default False)}}
>  * {{skipHealthCheck :: boolean (default False)}}
> h6. Response
>  * 202 Accepted
>  ** {{operationId :: string}}
>  * 412 Precondition Failed
>  ** {{error :: string (health check fails)}}
>  * 500 Internal Sever Error
>  ** {{error :: string}}
> h5. *POST /api/v1/cassandra/operations/lifecycle/node/restart*
> Restart the connected Cassandra process after a pluggable health check passes. 
> h6. Parameters
>  * {{block :: boolean (default False)}}
>  * {{skipHealthCheck :: boolean (default False)}}
> h6. Response
>  * 202 Accepted
>  ** {{operationId :: string}}
>  * 412 Precondition Failed
>  ** {{error :: string (health check fails)}}
>  * 500 Internal Sever Error
>  ** {{error :: string}}
