Avoid the use of deprecated MariaDB "zero dates" globally. If they're present
as attribute defaults somewhere, they will be replaced with NULL implicitly.
The existing "zero dates" in MariaDB storage will be left intact and this
should not present any issues.
The "timestamp" type in table definitions now corresponds to DATETIME in
MariaDB with "DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP", which
should be close enough to the original behaviour for compatibility purposes.
It is now the recommended type for "modified" attributes, because of the
update trigger on MariaDB. But there is no such trigger implemented on
PostgreSQL as of this moment.
The Census event is now replaced with module settings for populating the
protocols array. With this we can shutdown some plugins and still make
them be checked by TFN.
The performance:high config is now added when deciding whether or not to
do online lookup after the offline lookup fails.
default:
- Add default values for the TFN protocol setting
EVENTS:
- Remove Cencus event
TheFreeNetworkModule
- Remove Census event handler, update protocols array to use module's settings
- Use performance:high config when deciding to do online lookup
Use $object->sqlValue('NULL') (identical to DataObject_Cast'ing) instead and
fix related issues like (email|sms)settings considering these NULLs as a
false positive for the E-Mail address still being set when it's been removed.
There could also be security implications to the now-disabled approach of
considering 'NULL' strings as SQL NULLs.
Note that this commit isn't intended to add support for sending such notes
in GS. Instead, we handle the reception, storage and direct reply to this
type of notices, in AP.
ActivityPubPlugin:
- Subscribe the event StartNoticeSave to hack answering non-public notes
Activitypub_create:
- Add 'directMessage' attribute to the Create activity, defaulting to false for now
- Update validation method: validate 'directMessage' and add debug
Activitypub_notice:
- Handle incoming unlisted/followers-only notes
- Add support for unlisted-replies
- Add method to verify private (direct) notices
inbox_handler:
- Add handler for CREATE Note
- Prepare logic for private-messaging
- Overall refactor: Class members were continuously being passed as function arguments without need
SharePlugin:
- Stop showing the announce button in non public posts

As noted by XRevan86, modules are not necessarily non-essential.
As we will keep the modules directory in GS root [therefore, near to
plugins/], it is evidenced the difference between both.
This is a simple yet fundamental structural change. It doesn't change
functionality but makes clearer the way we understand GNU social's
internals.
