Review #22 and #25 first

This PR explains how MagicBox manages access control via Auth0 and tokens.

This takes from @mikefab's Medium article on how we manage access to the API.

This is great. We might want to add that, after a user receives a token, UNICEF will review the applicant before privileges are granted to access schools.

I updated the pull request to add a note that UNICEF reviews applicants after receiving a token. I'm going to go ahead and merge this based on the previous feedback.

Thanks @mikefab!
