Replace obsolete Request package with Axios in test-suite/server

[MartinWheelerMT]

What

• Replace all references to request and references to types created for request with equivalent axios packages.
• Refactor api.ts to use axios, adjusting the handling of requests and responses accordingly.
• Remove now obsolete types from index.ts.
• Update package.json and auto-generate package-lock.json to reflect the package changes.

Why

Request npm package was marked as obsolete a good number of years ago, and is no longer maintained (see request/request#3142). This package represents a critical security risk due to multiple transitive dependencies it introduces, such as form-data:

This needs to be replaced with a maintained package, in this case axios, to ensure critical vulnerabilities are not exposed.
