Inconsistent naming in device registration API JSON (case style)

See original GitHub issue

In the Device Registry Management API, the fields in the Device JSON structure related to the gateway groups feature are defined in camel-case notation:

  "viaGroups": [
    "string"
  ],
  "memberOf": [
    "string"
  ],

However, in the other parts of the API, the kebab-case notation is used (e.g. auth-id, minimum-message-size, resource-limits, etc.).

So my 👍 was for fixing the inconsistency by using “kebab-case”.
