Deleting a remote post now removes its timeline entries and the reblogs
of it and lowers its parent's reply count; deleting a remote actor also
drops the follows pointing at it and its entries in home timelines.

Fanout writes a TimelineEntry for every persona a post should reach: the
author, local followers of a local author, local followers of a remote one,
the members of a direct conversation or a circle. Mastodon's home rules
apply when it is written: a reply shows only to followers of both sides
(or to the one replied to), a reblog only where reblogs are wanted. A
mention of a local persona becomes a Mention notification.
Inbound posts are now also kept when a persona follows their author.
RemotePosts holds what CreateHandler and backfill share: building a Post
from a note, and fetching a public parent the first time a reply to it
arrives, so its author is known (a reply to an unknown or non-public
parent stays out of home timelines). Each fetched ancestor queues a
FetchAncestors job for the next one, up to ten deep.
/clientapi/timeline/home and /clientapi/notifications (with
/notifications/read) page by max_id for the persona's own root only.

OutboxPublisher works out who a post goes to, Mastodon's way: followers'
shared inboxes for public, unlisted and followers-only; every mentioned
remote account's own inbox; the recipients only for direct; the parent's
author for a reply; a community's followers for a post in it; nobody for
a circle. Creates, updates and deletes all use it.
- Local posts take a visibility (public, unlisted, followers-only) and a
spoiler text next to the content-warning flag.
- /clientapi/post/update keeps the previous version as a revision,
re-renders, and sends Update{Note} with `updated` to the same to/cc.
- Deleting is now soft: the content, title, spoiler, media and revisions
are cleared, timeline entries removed, the parent's reply count goes
down, Delete goes to the stored audience, and the object answers 410
with a Tombstone instead of 404.
- Editing a persona's profile sends Update{Person} to its followers.

Following records what a local persona follows, local or remote, with
its state and the Follow activity's id. FollowService (behind
/clientapi/follow, /clientapi/unfollow and /clientapi/following):
- resolves @user, user@host or an actor URI;
- a local account is followed in-process: accepted unless it approves
followers by hand, a Follower row on the other side, a community gains
the persona as a member, and a Follow or FollowRequest notification;
- a remote account gets a Follow signed by the persona, at
/grunts/follow-{id}, and stays Requested until an Accept;
- unfollowing deletes the rows, or sends Undo{Follow} to a remote account.
Inbound Accept and Reject are matched to the Follow by its id (or, for an
embedded Follow without one, by its actor), and only from the account that
was followed. A remote Follow now notifies the persona too.
Notification is the per-persona record P1.2 builds on, deduplicated by
type, persona, sender and post. TimelineEntry and Favourite are created
with their indexes for the next commits.

VisibilityPolicy.IsPublic is the single expression for "anyone may see
this" (Public or Unlisted, not deleted); the outbox, the object and
activity endpoints, the HTML pages and NodeInfo all use it instead of
spelling it out. CanSee answers for a persona: the author, a mentioned
local persona, a conversation member for Direct, a circle member for
Circle; followers-only waits for P1.2's follows.

Local text (Domain/Content/ContentRenderer): Markdig with raw HTML off and
autolinks, or plain text for API clients; then @user and @user@host are
resolved (locally or through WebFinger) into Mastodon's h-card markup and
#tags into hashtag links, skipping code, links and e-mail addresses. A
post stores the result, its mentions and its tags, and is delivered to
the mentioned actors and the parent's author as well as to followers.
Renderer:
- Mastodon's @context (toot, schema PropertyValue, discoverable,
indexable, blurhash, focalPoint, featured, alsoKnownAs, movedTo) and
FEP-2c59's webfinger;
- an actor's url is its HTML page, its fields are PropertyValue
attachments, published is cut to the day and indexable is false;
- a note's content is the stored rendering; a title becomes name and a
bold first line, a content warning without its own text is summarised
by the title or "Content warning"; Mention and Hashtag tags, contentMap,
updated, and to/cc by visibility.
Routes take the agreed names: /groupies, /stalking, /scribbles/{id},
/grunts/{id} (a Create resolves), /whispers/{id} for a DM's context. The
outbox is a collection with a first page, paged by max_id. A browser
asking for an actor or a note is redirected to /@user, and WebFinger's
profile-page points there.
