Please create a user registration endpoint in the api

The first thing new API-based projects need to do is be able to register a new user, and it's one of a handful of things missing from oscarapi. I'm doing this implementation myself now, and I'm new to Oscar too, so it's taking a while. It's too late for me, but if this endpoint were already there, it would save future devs a lot of time & headache if they're also new to Oscar.

If I've missed something critical that makes this request senseless, please do enlighten me or send a link. I think I've read and googled everything I could, but I could have missed something. Thank you.

In my case, I used dj_rest_auth from Jazzband. I think this library does what you ask for pretty well and it is well maintained. Hope this helps.

I think it would make sense to have a register user endpoint which triggers the sending of an registration email, like is done in Oscar with the RegisterUserMixn

I'll consider implementing it.
