This avoids duplicate submissions to remote instances when mentioning
followers (i.e., `POST /user/foo/inbox` followed by `POST /inbox`, which
results in two separate `add_status` tasks, and might generate duplicates
in the target instance).
Bookwyrm keyIds are at `userpath/#main-key`, however when signing AP objects we have claimed in the headers that the keyId is at `userpath#main-key`.
This is incorrect, and makes GoToSocial's strict checking break.
Simply updating the signatures to use the correct KeyId breaks legacy Bookwyrm's signature checks, becuase it assumes that the keyId path is the same as the user path plus a fragment.
This commit allows for either option, by sending the request a second time with the incorrect keyId if sending with the correct one causes an error.
This is essentially a revert of 9cbff312a. The commit was at the advice
of the Celery docs for optimization, but I've since decided that the
downsides in terms of making things harder to debug (it makes Flower
nearly useless, for instance) are bigger than the upsides in performance
gain (which seem extremely small in practice, given how long our tasks
take, and the number of tasks we have).
Since we don't use the results of our Celery tasks (all of them return
None implicitly), it's prudent to set the ignore_result flag, for a
potential performance improvement. See the Celery docs for details [1].
We could do this with the global CELERY_IGNORE_RESULT setting, but it
offers more flexibility if we want to use task results in the future to
set it on a per-task basis.

I think this will go a long way to solve the federation delay problems
we're seeing on b.s. I'm not sure at what point adding more queues will
create more problems than it solves, but I do think in this case the
queues are out of balance and moving broadcasts (which are the most
common type of `medium_priority` task at the moment) to their own queue
will be an improvement.
When an activity needs to be broadcast to the whole wide fediverse, the
number of requests can get enormous and the broadcast task ends up
taking ages to run. This change sends these requests out in one aiohttp
session, to improve performance.
When mastodon is in authorized fetch mode any request has to be signed
or it fails with 401. This adds the needed signature to the requests
made to discover the actor when receiving something from mastodon (such
as a follow request)
