Today we refactored the editor to a standalone component, and then added the ability to edit posts! It now works

We methodically worked thru all issues:

• splitting out an editor component
• creating api endpoint to fetch (GET) a single existing article
  • this later required fetching unpublished articles as well
• creating api endpoint to update (PUT) a single existing article
• wiring it up to the Dashboard (list of articles) and to existing editor pages.
