bugFix : onboarding-31-days

[joyguptaa]

Issue Description

By default, every developer has the status "ONBOARDING" in the database once they join the Discord server. This onboarding status should ideally be removed within a month. If not, then we have a Discord role, i.e., group-onboarding-31d+, for it to be applied. There's a button on the status site to sync "onboarding 31d+" users, but it doesn't add that role to the matched user. The issue lies in the verification flow. Once the user runs the /verify command, we do not send the discordJoinedAt field, which is required for this role to be applied.

Phase 1

A quick fix would be to use a deprecated API which is /external-accounts/discord-sync which will store the discordJoinedAt into the user collection. It includes following things to be done:

1. Instead of updating the entire user info, use specific query to update the specific user details.

2. Update the test cases

Phase 2

The current solution is to fix the existing flow and add discordJoinedAt to the users who do not have this key. For this, it requires 2 things to be done

1. Storing discordJoinedAt while generating the verification token
2. Instead of providing discordId from frontend once the user authorises the discord bot, we should update the user details in backend itself.

Expected Behavior

1. group-onboarding-31d+ should be applied to all the applicable users
2. Updating user info once the verification is completed should be handled in backend instead of making PATCH API to /users/self route.

Current Behavior

1. group-onboarding-31d+does not get applied to the applicable users
2. my-site makes a PATCH request to /users/self with discordId in the body once the verification is completed. Updating users info based on data provided by the frontend is not recommended.
