Updating the user profile

The skeleton application only has support for a user's name, email, and password. But in MERN Social we will allow users to add a description about themselves, and also upload a profile photo while editing the profile after signing up:

Adding an about description

In order to store the description entered in the about field by a user, we need to add an about field to the user model in server/models/user.model.js:

about: {
    type: String,
    trim: true
  }

Then, to get the description as input from the user, we add a multiline TextField to the EditProfile form and handle the value change the same way we did for the user's name input.
