Feature Request: Edit Username Functionality

Description

Implement a feature that allows users to edit their username on the contrihub platform. This will enable users to update their display name if needed, improving the overall user experience.

Requirements

• Add an "Edit Username" option in the user profile settings.
• Provide an input field where users can update their username.
• Ensure validation for the username, such as minimum/maximum length, allowed characters, and uniqueness.
• Provide feedback for successful username updates or errors (e.g., username already taken).
• Save the updated username and ensure it reflects across the platform (profile, posts, comments, etc.).

Additional Information

Hi @VanshChitransh, great idea! This will be handy when we'll add community based features to the app 🤗 Is this part of #Hacktoberfest ? so that I can add the labels.
