[Good First Issues]: implement function "capitalize_word" - 8 points

[Jay]

Motivation

Vanus Functions are a series of pre-built functions worked within Vanus transformer. By choosing a function, users can specify the way that events will be changed.

It will be a good start if you decide to contribute to Vanus codes.

Details

This function is used to capitalize all words in a string of an existed json element.

Description

Function name: capitalize_word

Function args:

• path: the json path of the string which needs to be capitalized.

Function description: Capitalize all words in a string of an existed json element. The previous value of the json object will be replaced.

Example

For example, if users' original event looks like this:

{
    "specversion" : "1.0",
    "type" : "com.example.someevent",
    "source" : "/mycontext",
    "subject": null,
    "id" : "C234-1234-1234",
    "time" : "2018-04-05T17:31:00Z",
    "comexampleextension1" : "value",
    "comexampleothervalue" : 5,
    "datacontenttype" : "application/json",
    "data" : {
        "appinfoA" : "this is jay ding",
        "appinfoB" : 123,
        "appinfoC" : true
    }
}

After the function "capitalize_word":

"pipeline":[
    {"command":["capitalize_word","$.data.appinfoA"]}
]

The transformed event should look like:

{
    "specversion" : "1.0",
    "type" : "com.example.someevent",
    "source" : "/mycontext",
    "subject": null,
    "id" : "C234-1234-1234",
    "time" : "2018-04-05T17:31:00Z",
    "comexampleextension1" : "value",
    "comexampleothervalue" : 5,
    "datacontenttype" : "application/json",
    "data" : {
        "appinfoA" : "This Is Jay Ding",
        "appinfoB" : 123,
        "appinfoC" : true
    }
}

How to implement

1. Fork the vanus repository.
2. Create a branch function-capitalize-word
3. Create capitalize_word.go under internal/primitive/transform/action/strings, and then implement the function.
4. Create capitalize_word_test.go under internal/primitive/transform/action/strings for unit test.
5. Register your function in internal/primitive/transform/runtime/init.go.
6. Submit your PR

I'd like to implement this function if no one else has made progress for this. I'm fairly new with go but I want to contribute.
