Improve provision of quickstarters
Describe the solution you'd like
While a controller endpoint for provision quickstarter already exists, it needs to be improved to be used as REST API endpoint. Current implementation looks like more FE friendly.
To be added/improved:
- authorization needs to be added.
- project properties needs to be removed from payload and loaded from the local storage to avoid parameter manipulation security issue.
- input validation

Research direction
Start at the existing controller endpoint that provisions quickstarters and trace how its payload reaches local storage. Review the authorization and input-validation boundaries, then verify that project properties are loaded locally rather than accepted from the request. Done means the endpoint supports REST use without permitting parameter manipulation.
