Arrival carries a verdict that handlers set with one line before an existing return
(Arrival.Drop, Reject, Accept, About), so no handler signature changes. InboxProcessor
records it as an 'in' event, with the time taken, the wait since the inbox accepted it, the
attempt, the audience (from the post's visibility, or else the activity's addressing), the
local actor kind, the object's age for updates, deletes and reactions, and the FEP features
of a delivered object. It also records types nothing handles (unknown-type), actors that
cannot be loaded (deferred) and handler failures.
Drop reasons: fetch-failed, unparseable, misattributed, duplicate, deleted, not-addressed,
not-followed, not-public, not-visible, not-deleted, unknown-object, unknown-recipient,
cross-origin, unsupported. Accepted sub-reasons: stored, poll-vote, edit, refresh,
actor-refresh, actor-delete, removed, tombstone-only, auto-accepted, pending,
follow-answer, quote-answer, quote-granted, undone, reaction, reported. Rejected: blocked,
ignored, quote-refused.
A circle's traffic is private and kindless, and a stranger posting into one is just
not-addressed, so the event store cannot reveal a circle.

InteractionEvent records one interaction with a remote server: its channel (recv, in, out,
http, preview, crawl), activity and object type, outcome and reason, status, latency, wait,
bytes, attempt, audience, local actor kind, inbox, signature, features and the object's age.
IInteractionLedger.Record never blocks and never throws: events go into a bounded channel
of 10k, a full channel drops and counts, and a hosted service writes batches of up to 1000
every two seconds.
Privacy, as decided by the owner:
- no persona, root, group or activity id, inbox URL, actor URI or sender IP is stored;
- distinct accounts are counted with an HMAC keyed by a per-day salt (InteractionSalt,
upserted so restarts agree, never created for a past day);
- the local actor kind survives only on public and unlisted traffic;
- a host claimed by an unverified sender is kept only if it is already known.
Traffic caused by reading is only counted per day (InstanceDay.Reads, ServerDay). Indexes:
a 90-day TTL on events, unique day rows, and a TTL safety net on salts.
