Servers which need to be used to resolve the discord_name to discord_direct_ID about spiff-arena HOT 4 OPEN

@harmeet-status @jbirddog and I discussed this yesterday and since the core_contributor data store you referenced in your comment above is typeahead, it can only currently be accessed by a User Task form field. In order to be able to access the information directly in that data store like the other data stores, I added: Make typeahead data stores readable #1823. Jon estimated the 1 DD to make this happen. Otherwise we will need to create a duplicate kkv data store when that process is run.

@harmeet-status the UID is unique to the user and does not change if they change any of their other identifiers; username or display name.

Ok that's good. This is how I envision the logic to work:

We already have a Data Store which keeps the Bamboo User data (refreshed daily). We need to have another Data Store which stores user preferences and also stores the discord_username and resolved discord_ID

IF the discord_username from Bamboo Data Store != match User Preferences Data Store, WE MUST resolve the discord_username TO discord_ID and store this in the User Pref DS. This logic will ensure that should the user change their username for Discord, we resolve the discord_ID to make sure that we are sending messages to the correct user account.
