As a hack this removes the mysql_timestamp bit from the field settings on reply.modified so that our value actually gets saved. This *should* work ok as long as system timezone is set correctly, which we now set to UTC to match when connecting.
Changes the replacement of Twitter "entities" from in-place reverse ordering ('to preserve indices') to a forward-facing append-in-chunks that pulls in both the text and link portions, and escapes them all.
This unfortunately means first *de*-escaping the < and > that Twitter helpfully adds for us.... and any literal &blah;s that get written. This seems to match Twitter's web UI, however horrid it is.
Now using the original text form of @-mentions and #-tags, as in Twitter's own HTMLification.
Canonical forms are still used in generating links, where it's polite to match the canonical form.
Should fix issue #3027: twitter user avatars not getting imported.
Due to the change in URI, all twitter users that had been previously seen were getting new profile entries, which tried to save the same avatar. This would fail as Avatar.url has a unique index.
Note: now anything new seen in the last couple days in production will still potentially conflict.
This option may be useful for intranet sites that don't have direct access to the internet, as they may be unable to successfully fetch those resources.
