Update Registrations with a User Type - Admin

[palisadoes]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Currently our application assumes that all persons tracked in the database are Talawa users. This may not be the case in practice. Administrators will require the ability to manage people who either cannot access our apps or don't want to.

Describe the solution you'd like

There are requirements dependent upon the repository

API

1. We need to update the User collection to have a User Type field that could have at a minimum these possible values
   1. App User
   2. Non App User
2. This will need to be a mandatory field
3. Mutations for this field will need to be created for the User and related collections

The aim is that this field will be automatically populated during the registration process. Here are some examples:

1. Registrations through the mobile app would automatically be by an App User
2. Registrations through the Admin Portal and User Portal features of the Talawa Admin web app would automatically be by an App User
3. Admins may want to manually add Users who may be an App User or a Non App User
4. Persons attending events may need to be checked in. If they are new to the organization, then the event organizer may want to add them as a Non App User

Admin

We require this from you:

1. Registrations through the Admin Portal and User Portal features of the Talawa Admin web app would automatically be by an App User and the DB must be updated accordingly

hey @Shubh152 can you please tell me what the prerequisites are?
@Cioppolo14 assign this issue to me

[Cioppolo14]

@1010varun I think #1552 in Talawa-API is the prereq, see above. Do you still want this issue?

[adi790uu]

Hey @Cioppolo14 would like to take this up again!

[adi790uu]

Hey @palisadoes is this issue still valid as we have changed the whole approach by adding the NON_USER field in the enum and a new user is give the role of USER automatically.

@adi790uu Thank you. You are correct we don't need this issue. I am going to close this now.
