Websocket API needs support for users.[create,update,delete] and userProfile.update

[Kit Randel]

The websocket API currently only support user.get and user.list (see: https://git.launchpad.net/maas/tree/src/maasserver/websockets/handlers/user.py#n34). The following additional methods are required:

user.create, user.update, user.delete
userProfile.get, userProfile.update

This is currently blocking settings in react.

Kit, can you clarify what you want to read/change on UserProfile? AFAICT, authorisation tokens are already handled in the websocket handler.

[Kit Randel (blr)]

Thanks very much for landing that so promptly Adam!

We need a few more things please:

From User:

last_login ("last seen" column)
user_item.node_set.count ("machines" column, used to be "number of nodes in use")

From UserProfile:

is_local ("type" column)

I don't think there should be any issues on the angular client with adding additional fields to the existing user object as there's no particular schema on the client. It would be ideal if the user object could grow these new properties, rather than having a separate object/rpc method. We should probably have a chat about sensible client/api versioning at some point though.
