Supporting release for connect 2.4.4

Projects service now supports timelines and milestones per phase product. It seems very simple one liner change, but it is rather a very major uplifting because essentially it is kind of creating a new micro service for timeline and milestone.

Supporting release for connect 2.4.3

It contains following updates to the previous release which provided required features/functionality for connect 2.4.3:

1. project search is improved,
   a. now users can use ref:<actual_ref_code> to prioritise the search only on the ref code.
   b. now search respects the project status filter and shows results as per the current selected tab and shows appropriate message to load All Projects tab when there is no result for the current selected status tab.
   c. now search respects the My Projects switch as well, earlier it was not showing the search results when My Projects switch was turned on.
2. Fixed issues with endpoint for migrating old v2 projects to v3 format
3. Fixed admin endpoint for reindexing a project to fetch and index phases
4. Opened GET and LIST endpoints for template entities so that logged out users can create project in connect.
5. Strengthened the write endpoints for the template entities to only allow admins to perform the operations. Earlier managers were also allowed to do these operations.
6. Improved error message for the case where copilot is trying to access already claimed or non ready project.

Release to support project plan in projects

This release supports creation of phases for v3 projects. Theoretically, each phase can have multiple products, however, practically we have put limit of one product per phase.
Release is backward compatible i.e. project creation api would still behave same a before if no templateId param is passed in the body. If templateId is passed, it assumes the project to be in v3 version and created phases/products as per specified template.
