Everything on, phase 4a: one answer everywhere for counts, search, collections and the instance API

Owner decision 2026-10-04: fix the mismatches and every other mismatch of the same kind.

- One counting rule (Domain/Privacy/Counted), Mastodon's. It is used for a persona's statuses_count, its outbox
  totalItems, NodeInfo localPosts and the instance status_count, which used to count four different things. It
  counts every post that is neither deleted nor a DM, boosts included, and circle and located posts too (owner
  decision). A group's count includes its remote members' posts.
- Users. Personas of banned or deleted roots no longer count, and are not found in search. NodeInfo now gives
  activeMonth and activeHalfyear, and the v2 instance gives active_month instead of a constant 0.
- replies_count counts only public and unlisted replies, so it no longer tells anyone that a private reply exists.
  Migration _012 recounts it.
- A remote account that deletes itself takes everything out of every count (GoneActors): its likes, downvotes,
  reactions and poll votes go and their counters come back, as do its boosts', replies' and quotes' counts, and its
  notifications. Lookups, account lists, search and favourited_by no longer show it. Migration _012 applies this to
  accounts already gone.
- Deleting a post also deletes its pins and the local boosts of it.
- /stalking gives the same total as following_count. Members are still never listed, and hide_collections is now
  always true, since the setting never did anything.
- Joining a community by invitation is following it, so /flock and /groupies agree; leaving unfollows.
- Search. Anyone may search, as on Mastodon; resolve and offset need a sign-in, offset pages, and deleted accounts
  are never found.
- notifications/unread_count counts what the list shows, and the owner's follower and following lists page with
  Link.
- The instance API advertises what is enforced:
  - max_characters, now enforced with a 422;
  - max_pinned_statuses = MaxPins;
  - the media types and limits MediaService and MediaOptions accept;
  - PollService's limits;
  - the configured languages;
  - no streaming URL until streaming exists.

  domain_count counts the servers we have exchanged with; which ones stays unpublished (peers is empty).
- Routes Mastodon answers now answer instead of 404:
  - directory, tags/{name}, timelines/link and identity_proofs;
  - instance/languages, translation_languages, domain_blocks and privacy_policy;
  - the v1 and v2 notification policy, and notification requests.

Also, from phase 3: a recovered password ends /clientapi sessions through a per-root SessionStamp claim instead of
comparing the JWT's whole-second nbf with the change time. That comparison let a token issued in the same second
survive, which made a test flaky.

671 tests pass.
