Respect the @cancellable flag for ReplicationEndpoints (#12700)

While `ReplicationEndpoint`s register themselves via `JsonResource`,
they pass a method that calls the handler, instead of the handler itself,
to `register_paths`. As a result, `JsonResource` will not correctly pick
up the `@cancellable` flag and we have to apply it ourselves.
