cf6c8799ab Restrict users from multiple failed login attempts
I'm not resetting the failed LoginAttempt count, which is a low priority for
now, but necessary eventually.

f051b0be0b Check passwords in /login
TL;DR:
- Since POST /login is more rigorous, our accounts.csv needs to contain validly
  hashed passwords; you can use tests/create-accounts.sh to create dummy
  accounts

I still need to test the login flow and support:
- Tracking failed attempts (three maximum)
- Verifying accounts by sending emails to the users

90a521c78f Create Utils module for (|>) operator
For the past 3-4 Haskell projects on which I've worked, I've tried to habituate
the usage of the (&) operator, but I find that -- as petty as it may sound -- I
don't like the way that it looks, and I end up avoiding using it as a result.

This time around, I'm aliasing it to (|>) (i.e. Elixir style), and I'm hoping to
use it more.

012296f156 Move SQL out of API and into separate modules
Create modules for each Table in our SQL database. This cleans up the handler
bodies at the expense of introducing more files and indirection.

b170be9375 Hash passwords when creating accounts

bb36dd1f9e Define bespoke impls for {To,From}JSON instances
Instead of sending and receiving JSON like "accountUsername", which leaks
implementation details and is a bit unwieldy, define custom instances that
prefer the shorter, more user-friendly "username" version.

6d9e76313d Partially support DELETE /trips
Allow a user to delete a trip entry from the Trips table using the Primary
Key. While this type-checks and compiles, it doesn't appear to be working as
intended. Perhaps I should use an auto-incrementing integer as the Primary
Key. I'm not sure how I want to handle this, so I'm punting for now.

0637da36cc Support GET /trips
In the spirit of support CRUDL, I added a GET /trips, which lists all of the
trips in the Trips table.

2f73d1db6c Prefer NoContent response to Bool

option.

475f62fb16 Prefer SQLite.Simple to Persistent
In the spirit of walking crawling before I walk, I'm preferring the less
powerful SQLite.Simple library to the more powerful (but mystifying) Persistent
library.

c38814d7a1 Add CHECK constraints to schema
I believe data should be validated at each level of the stack:
- database
- server
- client

The database, in my opinion, is the most important layer at which to validate
because you can eliminate entire classes of bugs. However, the CHECK constraint
is limited, and the more complex the predicates are, the more expensive database
operations become.

At the server and client layers, the data validations can be more sophisticated
and return more useful error messages to help users better understand the shape
of the data that our application expects.
