Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Include workflowId in the header will enable the api gateway/frontend route the workflow request to correct active cluster without having to decode/open the request payload

Describe the solution you'd like

Workflow requests are requests for a specific workflow, i.e. StartWorkflow, RespondWorkflow/Activity, SignalWorkflow etc.

For actions initiated from the SDK (e.g., StartWorkflow, SignalWorkflow, TerminateWorkflow), the SDK needs to add the workflowId to the request header.

For action-after-poll requests (i.e., RespondWorkflow/ActivityTask), SDK only needs to attach the header from the matching poll response to the following API calls.

Additional context

server will add header at the poll response
