The return value is never used here; later stages which actually need it
fetch the user themselves and it doesn't matter wheter we wait for the
fech here or later (if needed at all).
Even more, this early fetch always fails if the user was already deleted
or never known to begin with, but we get something referencing it; e.g.
the very Delete action carrying out the user deletion.
This prevents processing of the Delete, but before that it will be
reattempted several times, each time attempring to fetch the
non-existing profile, wasting resources.
It was used to migrate OStatus connections to ActivityPub if possible,
but support for OStatus was long since dropped, all new actors always AP
and if anything wasn't migrated before, their instance is already marked
as unreachable anyway.
The associated logic was also buggy in several ways and deleted users
got set to ap_enabled=false also causing some issues.
This patch is a pretty direct port of the original Pleroma MR;
follow-up commits will further fix and clean up remaining issues.
Changes made (other than trivial merge conflict resolutions):
- converted CHANGELOG format
- adapted migration id for Akkoma’s timeline
- removed ap_enabled from additional tests

Current logic unconditionally adds public adressing to "cc"
and follower adressing to "to" after attempting to strip it
from the other one. This creates serious problems:
First the bug prompting this investigation and fix,
unconditional addition creates duplicates when adressing
URIs already were in their intended final field; e.g.
this is prominently the case for all "unlisted" posts.
Since List.delete only removes the first occurence,
this then broke follower-adress stripping later on
making the policy ineffective.
It’s also just not safe in general wrt to non-public adressing:
e.g. pre-existing duplicates didn’t get fully stripped,
bespoke adressing modes with only one of public addressing
or follower addressing are mangled — and most importantly:
any belatedly received DM or follower-only post
also got public adressing added!
Shockingly this last point was actually asserted as "correct" in tests;
it appears to be a mistake from mindless match adjustments
while fixing crashes on nil adressing in
10c792110e.
Clean up this sloppy logic up, making sure no more duplicates are
added by us, all instances of relevant adresses are purged and only
readded when they actually existed to begin with.
Current AP spec demands anonymous objects to have an id value,
but explicitly set it to JSON null. Howeveras it turns out this is
incompatible with JSON-LD requiring `@id` to be a string and thus AP
spec is incompatible iwth the Ativity Streams spec it is based on.
This is an issue for (the few) AP implementers actually performing
JSON-LD processing, like IceShrimp.NET.
This was uncovered by IceShrimp.NET’s zotan due to our adoption of
anonymous objects for emoj in f101886709.
The issues is being discussed by W3C, and will most likely be resolved
via an errata redefining anonymous objects to completely omit the id
field just like transient objects already do. See:

Ever since the browser frontend switcher was introduced in
de64c6c54a /akkoma counts as
an API prefix and thus gets skipped by frontend plugs
breaking the old swagger ui path of /akkoma/swagger-ui.
Do the simple thing and change the frontend path to
/pleroma/swaggerui which isn't an API path and can't collide
with frontend user paths given pleroma is areserved nickname.

Usually an id should point to another AP object
and the image file isn’t an AP object. We currently
do not provide standalone AP objects for emoji and
don't keep track of remote emoji at all.
Thus just federate them as anonymous objects,
i.e. objects only existing within a parent context
and using an explicit null id.
IceShrimp.NET previously adopted anonymous objects
for remote emoji without any apparent issues. See:

We’ve received reports of some specific instances slowly accumulating
more and more binary data over time up to OOMs and globally setting
ERL_FULLSWEEP_AFTER=0 has proven to be an effective countermeasure.
However, this incurs increased cpu perf costs everywhere and is
thus not suitable to apply out of the box.
Apparently long-lived Phoenix websocket processes are known to
often cause exactly this by getting into a state unfavourable
for the garbage collector.
Therefore it seems likely affected instances are using timeline
streaming and do so in just the right way to trigger this. We
can tune the garbage collector just for websocket processes
and use a more lenient value of 20 to keep the added perf cost
in check.
Testing on one affected instance appears to confirm this theory
