* Add support for followers synchronization on the receiving end
Check the `collectionSynchronization` attribute on `Create` and `Announce`
activities and synchronize followers from provided collection if possible.
* Add tests for followers synchronization on the receiving end
* Add support for follower synchronization on the sender's end
* Add tests for the sending end
* Switch from AS attributes to HTTP header
Replace the custom `collectionSynchronization` ActivityStreams attribute by
an HTTP header (`X-AS-Collection-Synchronization`) with the same syntax as
the `Signature` header and the following fields:
- `collectionId` to specify which collection to synchronize
- `digest` for the SHA256 hex-digest of the list of followers known on the
receiving instance (where “receiving instance” is determined by accounts
sharing the same host name for their ActivityPub actor `id`)
- `url` of a collection that should be fetched by the instance actor
Internally, move away from the webfinger-based `domain` attribute and use
account `uri` prefix to group accounts.
* Add environment variable to disable followers synchronization
Since the whole mechanism relies on some new preconditions that, in some
extremely rare cases, might not be met, add an environment variable
(DISABLE_FOLLOWERS_SYNCHRONIZATION) to disable the mechanism altogether and
avoid followers being incorrectly removed.
The current conditions are:
1. all managed accounts' actor `id` and inbox URL have the same URI scheme and
netloc.
2. all accounts whose actor `id` or inbox URL share the same URI scheme and
netloc as a managed account must be managed by the same Mastodon instance
as well.
As far as Mastodon is concerned, breaking those preconditions require extensive
configuration changes in the reverse proxy and might also cause other issues.
Therefore, this environment variable provides a way out for people with highly
unusual configurations, and can be safely ignored for the overwhelming majority
of Mastodon administrators.
* Only set follower synchronization header on non-public statuses
This is to avoid unnecessary computations and allow Follow-related
activities to be handled by the usual codepath instead of going through
the synchronization mechanism (otherwise, any Follow/Undo/Accept activity
would trigger the synchronization mechanism even if processing the activity
itself would be enough to re-introduce synchronization)
* Change how ActivityPub::SynchronizeFollowersService handles follow requests
If the remote lists a local follower which we only know has sent a follow
request, consider the follow request as accepted instead of sending an Undo.
* Integrate review feeback
- rename X-AS-Collection-Synchronization to Collection-Synchronization
- various minor refactoring and code style changes
* Only select required fields when computing followers_hash
* Use actor URI rather than webfinger domain in synchronization endpoint
* Change hash computation to be a XOR of individual hashes
Makes it much easier to be memory-efficient, and avoid sorting discrepancy issues.
* Marginally improve followers_hash computation speed
* Further improve hash computation performances by using pluck_each
There are edge cases where requests to certain hosts timeout when
using the vanilla HTTP.rb gem, which the goldfinger gem uses. Now
that we no longer need to support OStatus servers, webfinger logic
is so simple that there is no point encapsulating it in a gem, so
we can just use our own Request class. With that, we benefit from
more robust timeout code and IPv4/IPv6 resolution.

* Address code style remarks
Fixes#13136
When a user's canonical acct domain is different from its id's domain
(WEB_DOMAIN ≠ LOCAL_DOMAIN), two webfinger queries are required to find the
canonical domain from the URI. However, we skip webfinger queries when
updating only the key of a remote user, which led to the creation of a
duplicate account, using the URI's domain instead of the canonical acct: one.
If a poll contains empty options (which is apparently possible on Pleroma),
it is created without them. However, the poll update code doesn't filter
empty options, and thus:
1. Clear known votes, as it assumes the set of options has changed
2. Errors out because it tries adding empty options, which fails validation
This commit fixes that by filtering them out the same way they are filtered
out at poll creation time.

* When updating the poll, update options just in case they were changed
* Fix public pages showing both poll and other media
* Fetch up to 5 replies when discovering a new remote status
This is used for resolving threads downwards. The originating

Reject those from accounts with no local followers, from relays
that are not enabled, which do not address local accounts and are
not replies to accounts that do have local followers

Fix#8643
Because there are a few places where it is called, it is difficult
to confirm if they all previously checked it for locality. It's better
to make sure within the service.

bin/tootctl accounts rotate [USERNAME]
Generates a new RSA key per account and sends out an Update activity
signed with the old key.
* Key rotation: Space out Update fan-outs every 5 minutes per 1000 accounts
* Skip suspended accounts in key rotation
Updates account `uri` field on each call to `update_account` instead of
only once during `create_account` to mirror the same behavior in OStatus
`ResolveAccountService` class [0].
ActivityPub accounts are identified using `@username` and `@domain` pair
instead of URI since #6842.
This fixes#7479: a bug when the account identified by `@username` and
`@domain` changes its URI.

When an ActivityPub Announce is processed and the boosted toot is not known,
fetch it on behalf of one of the booster's followers. This is to allow
fetching self-boosts of previously-unknown private toots.
If fetching on behalf of a user fails, try fetching it anonymously: the
selected follower of a boosting user may be banned by the boosted toot's
author.

- Rename Mastodon::TimestampIds into Mastodon::Snowflake for clarity
- Skip for statuses coming from inbox, aka delivered in real-time
- Skip for statuses that claim to be from the future
The whole point of verified_webfinger? is to check the WebFinger-discoverable
URI maps back to the known author URI. This was not actually verified if the
first Webfinger request was not a redirection.
Additionally, ActivityPub::FetchRemoteStatusService no longer parses
activities.
OStatus::Activity::Creation no longer delegates to ActivityPub because
the provided ActivityPub representations are not signed while OStatus
representations are.
* Whenever a remote keypair changes, unfollow them and re-subscribe to them
In Mastodon (it could be different for other OStatus or AP-enabled software),
a keypair change is indicative of whole user (or instance) data loss. In this
situation, the “new” user might be different, and almost certainly has an empty
followers list. In this case, Mastodon instances will disagree on follower
lists, leading to unreliable delivery and “shadow followers”, that is users
believed by a remote instance to be followers, without the affected user
knowing.
Drawbacks of this change are:
1. If an user legitimately changes public key for some reason without losing
data (not possible in Mastodon at the moment), they will have their remote
followers unsubscribed/re-subscribed needlessly.
2. Depending of the number of remote followers, this may generate quite some
traffic.
3. If the user change is an attempt at usurpation, the remote followers will
unknowingly follow the usurper. Note that this is *not* a change of
behavior, Mastodon already behaves like that, although delivery might be
unreliable, and the usurper would not have known the former user's
followers.
* Rename ResubscribeWorker to RefollowWorker
* Process followers in batches
- Fix assumption that `url` is always a string. Handle it if it's an
array of strings, array of objects, object, or string, both for
accounts and for objects
- `sharedInbox` is actually supposed to be under `endpoints`, handle
both cases and adjust the serializer
Using _: property names is discouraged, as in the future,
canonicalization may throw an error when encountering that instead
of discarding it silently like it does now.
We are defining some ActivityStreams properties which we expect
to land in ActivityStreams eventually, to ensure that future versions
of Mastodon will remain compatible with this even once that happens.
Those would be `locked`, `sensitive` and `Hashtag`
We are defining a custom context inline for some properties which we
do not expect to land in any other context. `atomUri`, `inReplyToAtomUri`
and `conversation` are part of the custom defined OStatus context.
