O-RU/O-DU Front-haul Recovery (Hello World) rApp not working

• Last week: repeated here for reference
  •  Issue:
    • Endpoint used by rApp (/rests/data/network-topology:network-topology/topology=topology-netconf/node=[O-DU-ID]/yang-ext:mount/o-ran-sc-du-hello-world:network-function/du-to-ru-connection=[O-RU-ID]) is deprecated & will be removed.
      • Updated in E-Release with O-DU Slicing use case updates
    • rApp & test stubs needs to be updated
      • e.g. Python Script version: https://gerrit.o-ran-sc.org/r/gitweb?p=nonrtric.git;a=blob;f=test/usecases/oruclosedlooprecovery/scriptversion/app/main.py
      • Ref: NONRTRIC: O-RU Fronthaul Recovery usecase & NONRTRIC NONRTRIC: Control Loops for O-RU Fronthaul Recovery usecase
    • Integration environment for this use case is currently broken ...
  • John Keeney (Ericsson EST) Initial versions completed and tested locally. Testing in local copy of Integration environment. Will update in coming days for testing. Hope to complete in time for Maintenance Release
