Pasture: Smithereen 1.0.3, and failed server descriptions retried

Smithereen joins the pasture (tools/pasture/peers/smithereen.sh): its image on the shared MySQL, with imgproxy and a
file server behind Caddy, a JDK trust store with the pasture's CA, accounts from its signup form, and a password grant
for a local application. scenarios/smithereen.sh drives its VKontakte-like API: friends as mutual follows, wall posts,
comments, likes, reposts (quotes there), polls, edits, deletions, private messages, the unfollow and statistics, 30
checks. A post on someone else's wall never reaches PrivaPub, since Smithereen sends it only to servers whose actors
publish a wall: G-0009, waiting for the owner.

PrivaPub: a server description that failed (Smithereen serves no NodeInfo until it has a description) frees its week,
so the server's next arrival asks again instead of a week later.

The shared Postgres takes 400 connections: at 100 the village seed ran it dry (Sharkey's API answered 500, Misskey
dropped deliveries). The seeder records a follow that stands from an earlier seed when the step itself fails, so the
checker no longer expects that follower to see nothing.

| An account a persona follows moves | **Move the follow, as Mastodon does.** After a verified `Move` the persona follows the new account (a Follow to its server) and unfollows the old, in the same lists; a mute or a block of the old account carries over. |
| Should PrivaPub pass on replies to a persona's posts? | **Yes, "the fediverse is broken without".** A public or unlisted reply that someone on another server writes to a persona's post goes on to the persona's followers, as Mastodon forwards it: the activity as its author signed it, never to the replier's own server, never for a post that is local-only, in a group or not shown to followers. Its edits and deletion follow the same way. |
**Waiting for the owner:** a persona's wall (G-0009). Smithereen sends a post written on someone else's wall only to
servers whose actors publish a wall (`sm:wall`, FEP-400e). Publishing one would also let Smithereen's users write on a
persona's wall, and PrivaPub would then host their posts and announce them with `Add{Note}`.
## Libraries (researched; no maintained .NET ActivityPub library exists, so Letterbook and Iceshrimp.NET both wrote their own)
