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

Users need to be able to add and join houses.

Describe the solution you'd like

Once a user is logged in, they need to be able to create or join a house. Detailed specification for the entire milestone is on this page.

For this task, the specs are as follows (not yet final):

Frontend

• New users will be shown a screen where they can either create or join a house
  • Joining a house will require a code
  • Creating a house will ask the user for some basic information, such as a name
• Users in a house will be directed to the dashboard for that house
  • This task doesn't require the dashboard to be implemented, just that they are redirected to the page

Screens

• Page to create new or join house
• Page to create a new flat

Backend

• New users are created in the database with the Firebase (Add guard to check if user is logged in #40)
  • Please modify the guard to create a new user in the db if the auth is correct but user doesn't exist. See comments on issue Add guard to check if user is logged in #40 and related PR User login guard #51 for details
• Endpoint to get the user's current house
• Endpoint to create a new house, owned by the creator.
  • Usable by people who are not in a house
  • The house must have a unique associated code that can be used to join it
• Endpoint to join a house with a code, that will add the user to that house

Checklist:

• I have double checked that the issue does not currently exist.
• I have added the appropriate labels (e.g. feature, front-end, back-end).
• I have added the Platform Project project
