Cluster management is now scriptable

Recent advancements allow for automated management of cluster replicas and traffic distribution through three new API endpoints, which provide the same operations previously available only through a user interface. These endpoints enable users to rebalance traffic weights, add replicas, and remove replicas through scripting, facilitating tasks such as embedding rebalancing into runbooks or automating scaling operations from a control plane. To prevent conflicts during concurrent modifications, API calls require the use of an "old_weights" field, which must be obtained from the current configuration through a separate API call. This functionality is available for dedicated infrastructure where self-serve replica management is enabled, offering users the flexibility to manage cluster changes programmatically with the same permissions as the UI.
