Allow users to update their Account in the API (#1179)
* Allow users to update their Account in the API It would be nice for API clients to be able to allow users to update their accounts without having to wrap Mastodon in a web view. This patch adds an API endpoint to let users submit a PATCH for their account. Signed-off-by: David Celis <me@davidcel.is> * Add /api/v1/accounts/update_credentials to the API docs Signed-off-by: David Celis <me@davidcel.is>
