Empty profile pic upon registration

[aaronschachter]

There's a delay on the AWS side when posting a User Avatar, which will result in an empty profile pic if you immediately view your profile upon account registration (tap on the Me tab to view Profile).

Suggested solution:
When we upload the photo, store the UIImage locally as well. In the photo method of DSOUser -- if the user is the logged in user (5c9e1f5), and a file exists -- return the locally saved file.

@aaronschachter--just to confirm, to implement this feature we need to check to see if the user is the logged in user because the DSOUser object is also used to present information on other users' profiles.

1. ^^ Is this true?
2. Is there a way I can currently test by navigating to another user's profile, in order to test this functionality?
3. Why, in this commit (5c9e1f5) did you run this check using the user's PhoenixID and not her userID?

1. yes a user can view the profile of another user via the ReportbackItemDetailView
2. . The User profile is not fully built out yet but you can see an example of the ReportbackItemDetailView on the ReportbackDetailSingleVC (which is presented by tapping a RB Item in the Main Feed) or on the Campaign Detail Gallery -- there's a numeric ID next to the avatar, which is the phoenix ID. it's a button to the given reportbackItem user's profile. The username is not displayed yet because of Expose User firstName, photo, and countryCode in Reportback Items endpoint  api#7
3. Because the phoenixID is the common ID between both Phoenix and Northstar endpoints. The reportback-items endpoint does not return a Northstar ID at all
