Remote posts take their timeline place on arrival, and an unedited one has no edit date

Found by the first live run against GoToSocial:

- A remote post's id came from its published second plus random bytes, so a reply arriving in the same second as
  the post it answers could sort under it, and a late arrival landed behind a client's since_id. A post published
  within the last hour now gets an id for its arrival; backfill keeps its published time.
- NoteParser.Time returned default(DateTime) for a missing "updated", so every remote post was stored as edited in
  year one. Migration _006 clears the stored ones.
- published now carries milliseconds, so peers that derive ids from it (GoToSocial, Mastodon) keep our posts in
  order within a second.
