Set points on a challenge

[ajefts]

Restore the ability to set points on a challenge in Direct. This is basically what we used to do for DR points, but we won't call them DR points...

We can probably reuse the old DR points fields if that makes it easier.

On a given challenge, the user will be able to set the usual normal monetary prizes and/or a single points value. So, the can set just $, just points, or $ plus points.

The challenge API should return these points and we'll update community-app to display the points on the listings and details pages (this last part is already done assuming we reuse the DR points field).

We'll potentially need to show/hide this feature per community (topgear vs public vs blockchain vs etc). Let's discuss this part...

UPDATE:

• Add the points field to the prizes section below the monetary prizes:
  

• Only show the ability to set points IF a group has been set on the challenge. Eventually we will set a flag on the group to indicate if points are supported, but for now we can assume if a group is set then points are supported.

• Calculate fees the same way we do now. So, if $ prizes are empty then the fee is zero. We will iterate on this later.

@cwdcwd This is one that we need to get on the roadmap. First usage of it will be on topgear. The more generic approach/concept is really being able to support different prize types, so let's chat about the approach. Might be a short term/long term type of thing...

@ajefts @cwdcwd in the prize table, we support final prize and checkpoint prize why not extend it by supporting new types of prizes.

then it is more related to displaying and aggregating different type of prize in the user profile.

@skyhit I'm ok doing it that way to make it more flexible. Can you start on this?

@cwdcwd any concerns here?

[skyhit]

@ajefts ok, I will

[ajefts]

reminder on this one @skyhit @cwdcwd. Can we get going on it? This is something we need to support for hybrid crowds for mid-April.

@ajefts @cwdcwd for Points type, how should we award (save) the data? are we going to still put into the payments? and with different type?

[ajefts]

@skyhit Please launch this one. Let's also get the corresponding API update done so we can do the front end updates in parallel
