NoMongo: Seamless Database Importation Script for Docker

[palisadoes]

Develop-Postgres Branch!

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

1. We need a script that automatically imports the sample database into the MongoDB database when running Docker
2. The script must not be interactive. The user needs to be able to run it from the operating system command line using a single command.
3. Currently, the following 3 steps need to be run using the .env.devcontainer file.

   docker exec -it talawa-api-1 /bin/bash
   pnpm run import:sample-data
   exit
   

4. This is to streamline the provisioning of a sister site to: https://demo.talawa.io

@JaiPannu-IITI With your latest PR, is this necessary any more?

[palisadoes]

1. Can your script differentiate between the .env.ci and the other environment files?
2. We need to make sure that we don't overwrite a production DB. For example is the test/dev DB name different from production?

Sir it can be resolved if you like, the script we have made can handle this if called while setting up container
