Description
Bug report
The get_action_names_and_types API defined here https://github.com/ros2/ros2cli/blob/rolling/ros2action/ros2action/api/__init__.py calls an homonym method on the Node rclpy class.
It looks like this function is not implemented.
This problem applies to both Galactic and Humble.
Is there a reason for that?
Which of the two libraries (ros2cli or rclpy) should be updated?

Research direction
Start with ros2action/ros2action/api/init.py and trace the get_action_names_and_types call into the rclpy Node API. Determine which library owns the missing implementation and compare behavior in Galactic and Humble; done means the API is implemented in the appropriate library and the ros2action call works in both distributions.
