This property was introduced as a way to gauge whether and
how much enabling authfetch might break passive federation in
https://akkoma.dev/AkkomaGang/akkoma/pulls/312.
However, with the db field defaulting to false, there’s no distinction
between instances without valid signatures and those which just never
attempted to fetch anything from the local instance.
Furthermore, this was never exposed anywhere and required manually
checking the database or cachex state via a remote shell.
Given the above it appears this doesn't actually
provide anything useful, thus drop it.
Close#304.
Notes:
- This patch was made on top of Pleroma develop, so I created a separate cachex worker for request signature actions, instead of Akkoma's instance cache. If that is a merge blocker, I can attempt to move logic around for that.
- Regarding the `has_request_signatures: true -> false` state transition: I think that is a higher level thing (resetting instance state on new instance actor key) which is separate from the changes relevant to this one.
