vnf spin up gr api vnf s base module fails

map object representations of json back to json strings
marshal all objects to json strings before sending
all input params converted to Map<String, Object>
Updated userParams map from HashMap<String, String> to Map<String,
Object> as HashMap<String, String> userParams was causing VNF spin up
to fail. Input json in Userparams was not accepted as a valid json
format. Updated other files that were affected by this change.
