likePost, unlikePost and boostPost all call resolveAuthor() which makes
up to 3 signed HTTP requests to the remote server (post fetch, author
actor fetch, getAttributedTo) with no timeout. If the remote server is
slow or unreachable, the favourite/reblog HTTP response hangs until the
Node.js socket default times out (~2 min). Mastodon clients (Phanpy,
Elk) give up much sooner and show "Failed to load post".
Fix: wrap every resolveAuthor() call in a Promise.race() with a 5 s
timeout. The interaction is still recorded in ap_interactions and the
Like/Announce activity is still sent when recipient resolution succeeds
within the window; if it times out, AP delivery is silently skipped
(the local record is kept — the client sees a successful ⭐).

Implement the Mastodon Client REST API (/api/v1/*, /api/v2/*) and OAuth2
server within the ActivityPub plugin, enabling Mastodon-compatible clients
to connect to the Fedify-based server.
Core features:
- OAuth2 with PKCE (S256) — app registration, authorization, token exchange
- Instance info + nodeinfo for client discovery
- Account lookup, verification, relationships, follow/unfollow/mute/block
- Home/public/hashtag timelines with cursor-based pagination
- Status viewing, creation, deletion, thread context
- Favourite, boost, bookmark interactions with AP federation
- Notifications with type filtering and pagination
- Search across accounts, statuses, and hashtags
- Markers for read position tracking
- Bookmarks and favourites collection lists
- 25+ stub endpoints preventing client errors on unimplemented features
Architecture:
- 24 new files under lib/mastodon/ (entities, helpers, middleware, routes)
- Virtual endpoint at "/" via Indiekit.addEndpoint() for domain-root access
- CORS + JSON error handling for browser-based clients
- Six-layer mute/block filtering reusing existing moderation infrastructure
BREAKING CHANGE: bumps to v3.0.0 — adds new MongoDB collections
(ap_oauth_apps, ap_oauth_tokens, ap_markers) and new route registrations
