improvements to user registration page about rockpool HOT 4 CLOSED

There is server-side validation of these fields, primarily because client-side validation has multiple problems including security issues. If you enter text in the wrong format a message will appear explaining how to correct the mistake.

1. Would some placeholder text do the job sufficiently?
2. Should the font size of the labels be increased or that of the fields be decreased?

I tested this but did not receive an error message (Chrome/macOS).

Additionally, when testing incorrectly-formatted input I noticed that after a couple of changes the 'Update' button appears to stop working (that is, the field remains available to edit) but subsequently clicking the 'Cancel' button saves the changes anyway.

1. Some placeholder text would be useful, thank you :)
2. The font size of the fields should be decreased, to bring them into line with the rest of the page.

This is probably related to #43.

Soooo I added field validation for all three fields in 31b4479 but then when I moved everything to vuejs components so I could make the page reactive I forgot to keep the field validation... Whoops.
