Feature/rest calls

- Apologies for the large PR, fixing the tests took some refactoring
- To make the demux executors non-blocking, I added some become/unbecome logic 
- Moved the request work to the executors and they will only pass the request up to parent if they are idle. Not sure if this is ideal
- Return response codes from the api endpoints

What does the "@"-thing do? Haven't seen that before?
