/me or /user endpoint

[jessfraz]

something super basic that tells us info about the current authed user

you can pick your poison on the name, github uses /user but I've seen /me as well

I lean towards /user

[david-crespo]

Exists already, though we don't have a User model so it only returns the current user's UUID. It could be moved out of the console API file and renamed.

Lines 203 to 222 in 72b8c3e

	/// Fetch the user associated with the current session
	#[endpoint {
	method = GET,
	path = "/session/me",
	tags = ["hidden"],
	}]
	pub async fn session_me(
	rqctx: Arc<RequestContext<Arc<ServerContext>>>,
	) -> Result<HttpResponseOk<views::SessionUser>, HttpError> {
	let apictx = rqctx.context();
	let handler = async {
	// TODO: we don't care about authentication method, as long as they are
	// authed as _somebody_. We could restrict this to session auth only,
	// but it's not clear what the advantage would be.
	let opctx = OpContext::for_external_api(&rqctx).await?;
	let &actor = opctx.authn.actor_required()?;
	Ok(HttpResponseOk(actor.into()))
	};
	apictx.external_latencies.instrument_dropshot_handler(&rqctx, handler).await
	}

oh perfecrt somehow i missed that in the spec would be nice to have more info even if it is slightly stale from the idp

basically my use case is when the user wants to get their auth status from the cli I want to return this info like name, email, basic stuff so they know who they are logged in as

[davepacheco]

Yeah, we'll definitely put more information there once we implement IdP integration.

also adding a note here just so we don't forget will also be nice to know the org the user is in, such that then for the cli I will set it as their default org, and check time to time to make sure it is still their org
