Remove groupId casting to short from rest handler

Problem: The decoder in GroupCodec (used by the REST layer) chopped the
upper 16 bit in caller-provided group IDs. Since group IDs are
inherently greater than 16-bit on any OFDPA-based device, the current
casting rendered the REST layer unusable for such devices.

Fix: removed casting, verified that all tests pass, and verified that I
can now create healthy group entries on OFDPA-based switches.
