This PR adds mutations for forget-password.
Implementation: The idea is to generate a token, save it in Redis, and send it in a link to the user's email. Then that link will land on the new password page. On this page, we will retrieve the token from the URL and call the change-password mutation
endpoint with the token and newly selected password. Then this mutation checks whether the token is valid or not. A token can be used only once to change the password and expires in 24 hrs.
Package:
UUID: To generate a token
Nodemailer: To send an email:
and Redis to store tokens
