Identity Handles

Nick Orlowsky requested to merge no/identity-handles into master

This PR adds identity handles (usernames). These handles take the form of handle@domain.tld where domain.tld is a polycentric server. 2 endpoints are added to the polycentric server to support this:

/claim_handle : lets a polycentric user link an identity handle to their account (this will overwrite an existing identity handle) /resolve_handle : returns the public key for a given identity handle on this polycentric server

Clients should set the username for a polycentric profile to its identity handle after the client claims a handle.
