Permit.io User Attributes API
User attributes allow you to specify an arbitrary schema attributes that are partof the definition of the User resource.Attributes are used to enforce attribute-based access control policies.*NOTE: A User is a Resource by itself, so basically a user's attribute is an attribute that assigned to the resource called "user".*For example, if we are building the github's permissions system, we might want to knowwhether the user is an owner of the organization or not. In such case we willdefine a string `owner` attribute that we can now use in our policies.
