server : add a REST Whisper server example with OAI-like API (ggml-org#1380)

* Add first draft of server

* Added json support and base funcs for server.cpp

* Add more user input via api-request

also some clean up

* Add reqest params and load post function

Also some general clean up

* Remove unused function

* Add readme

* Add exception handlers

* Update examples/server/server.cpp

* make : add server target

* Add magic curl syntax
