Add Agent and Agency models
Since IN COMMON is about collective management of data we're using the concept of Agent to describe a group of users acting together. In ActivityPub terms, Agent will be the Actor when manipulating data, so that any individual User (or application) member of this Agent will be able to manipulate data on behalf of this Agent. Therefore a User has many Agencies, and an Agent as well: the Agency model allows not only to create a joint table between Agents and Users, but also to manage User roles within the related Agent. Roles are defined as: - observer: one who can read and review or flag data - editor: one who create or edit data - maintainer: one who can edit data and manage maps - leader: one who can manage roles A User may have zero or more roles in an Agent. A User without a Agency record for a specific Agent will only be able to 'observe' public data from this Agent. (Note that this is not currently specified, but matches existing reflection on Agents) https://doc.incommon.cc/#agents
