Export History job

[YunchuWang]

This pull request introduces a new sample web application, ExportHistoryWebApp, for managing export history jobs via a REST API. The changes add new project files, configuration files, and controller logic, as well as update the solution file to include the new projects and their build configurations.

New Export History Web Application

• Added new sample project ExportHistoryWebApp to the solution, including its project file (ExportHistoryWebApp.csproj) and necessary references to Durable Task components and the new ExportHistory project. [1] [2]
• Implemented ExportJobController to provide REST endpoints for creating, retrieving, listing, and deleting export history jobs. This controller uses the Durable Task ExportHistory client and models.
• Defined the CreateExportJobRequest model to represent the payload for creating export jobs, supporting various configuration options such as mode, time ranges, storage container, and filtering.

Configuration and Environment Setup

• Added launch settings (launchSettings.json) and application configuration files (appsettings.json, appsettings.Development.json) to support local development and environment variable management for connection strings and storage settings. [1] [2] [3]
• Added Program.cs to configure dependency injection, Durable Task client and worker services, and controller routing for the web application.

API Usage and Documentation

• Provided an HTTP request collection file (ExportHistoryWebApp.http) with example requests for creating, listing, retrieving, and deleting export jobs, including tips and usage notes for common scenarios.

Solution File Updates

• Updated Microsoft.DurableTask.sln to include the new ExportHistory and ExportHistoryWebApp projects, and adjusted build configuration and project nesting accordingly. [1] [2] [3] [4]
