Overview
When running in the local deployment, going through the "login" flow will short-circuit going to github and will instead complete the auth flow using dummy github user info, which helps make testing the user creation flow a lot easier.
Implementation notes
The only difference is that it skips redirecting through Github, and doesn't call the github APIs to get the user data and instead uses constant dummy user info.
Test coverage
I added a new user creation transcript to ensure we don't break the user creation flow.
Loose Ends
@hojberg you could optionally wire up the "Login", "Register" and "Logout" buttons in the local UI if you like :)
