Create Purple checkout flow that does not require iOS app, so that we can provide early Notedeck access to Purple members

Suggested-by: @ vrod

Notedeck rollout proposed timing / plan:

1. finish alpha milestone remaining tickets https://github.com/damus-io/notedeck/milestone/1
2. internal damus team testing (can happen same time as 3))
3. purple subscriber testing (early access is, and should be underlined as purple increased dev team access)
4. non-purple subscriber waitlist access, testing (as long as this follows 3), it is fine; e.g. one week after 3)/after some feedback loop, iterations, and improvements per purple customer feed back)

all purple subscribers should get access immediately to notedeck

@danieldaquino to investigate in prep for notedeck launch

Almost done and ready to go!

Done:

• Working checkout flow with OTP authentication (users can choose auth method)
• Refactor for checkout page into manageable chunks of code
• A nice membership welcome animation page on the web
• A few other small fixes/improvements needed along the way.

Still in progress:

• Some edge case testing
• Some regression testing
• Improve commit history and adherence to contribution guidelines.

These items will probably take only a few hours

Draft PRs:

• Non-iOS Purple checkout flows (server-side) api#11
• Non-iOS Purple checkout flows (client-side) website#28

@jb55 @alltheseas, finished editing the PRs and extensively tested them:

• Non-iOS Purple checkout flows (server-side) api#11
• Non-iOS Purple checkout flows (client-side) website#28

(This took longer than expected because there were many edge cases and preconditions to be tested, and several small details to be fixed/tweaked)

I recommend reviewing the server-side first, client-side second. I also highly recommend reviewing commit by commit instead of all changes at once on the website PR as many changes had to be made there.

Please let me know if there are any questions or concerns. Thank you!

@danieldaquino thanks! back now so reviewing soon

Without going into the individual commits the only thought I have is will customers want to subscribe to notedeck using a fiat payment mechanism, and do we want to add fiat checkout prior to notedeck launch

I tried to signup on the website on staging, but it doesn't seem to be giving me an OTP option?

I haven't merged and deployed the client-side yet. I will do that now, please give me one moment!

[danieldaquino]

@jb55, I merged those fixes for the OTP checkout flow, and deployed to https://staging.damus.io.

Please let me know if that fixes the issue you were seeing, and if it looks good for deployment at production!
