First pass at Mitra compatibility

Alex Gleasonrequested to merge
mitra into develop

Importing my auth credentials manually (and disabling CORS), I am able to view timelines and post a status on mitra.social. #824

What had to be done:

  • Normalize accounts & statuses better. Convert null values into empty strings.
  • Add a fallback avatar and use it when the avatar is null. Reverts changes to the avatar component in !1029 (merged)
  • Let MediaGallery images fallback on url when preview_url is not provided (should probably be moved to normalization step, but whatever)
  • Support /context on statuses being an array instead of a map.
  • The UI no longer waits for the streamingUrl before rendering (Mitra doesn't provide one). The root of that problem was solved already in !1021 (merged), so it's not needed anymore.
