Allow for URL to be maintained as a part of backend identifiers in the frontend

Description

This issue is related to the work in #1004 to directly return camelCase from the backend. One downside of this is specifically URL, where the conversion of _url will go to Url. All instances of URL were thus changed to Url for simplicity of conversion, but it would be nice to include a custom parser that inherits from djangorestframework-camel-case that would allow for URL to be returned instead.

Along with this we need to discuss if we'd do the same with _id to convert it to ID instead of Id. Other identifiers should also be considered :)

Contribution

Happy to discuss and work on this once #1004 is merged in!

One consideration for this is whether we should convert the Swagger UI back to snake case and then just do a conversion on the frontend for cases of Url.

Hey @UnknownSean8 👋 In talking about this a bit with @to-sta, we decided a few things:

1. Let's leave the Swagger UI as camelCase as it should match the results we're getting in the frontend
2. Let's not worry about id
3. In the case of URL, if the change is going to happen, then we'll need to figure out a custom parse on the backend level via djangorestframework-camel-case - potentially inheriting from its parser class for those that are _url that we want to be URL

Feel free to look into this, but let's definitely keep the current setup for now and not stress too much about this!
