The server's VAPID key (PushKeys, made on first need, in Mongo) is the instance API's vapid.public_key and every app's
vapid_key. /api/v1/push/subscription (POST, GET, PUT, DELETE) keeps one subscription per access token, so per persona;
every notification kept (never a filtered one) is queued as a SendPush job for the subscriptions whose alert and policy
admit it, and sent through the `push` client (the safe handler, https only) encrypted as RFC 8291 aes128gcm or the
aesgcm draft with an ES256 VAPID JWT. 404/410 delete the subscription, 429/5xx/timeouts retry, other answers drop the
push. Subscriptions end with their tokens (revocation, sessions ended, suspension, deletion, a restore); backups hold
neither keys nor subscriptions. The walk of every Mastodon 4.3-4.5 client route (docs/MASTODON-API.md) added
conversations/:id/unread, domain_blocks/preview, v2 notifications clear and PUT policy, /oauth/userinfo and stubs, so both
instance APIs now say 4.5.0 (compatible; PrivaPub <release>). The pasture gets a push sink (pushsink.test) and
scenarios/push.sh in batch A.

Mastodon 4.3's policy was a stub that accepted everything. It is now kept per persona: notifications from accounts it
does not follow, accounts that do not follow it (or only for three days), accounts newer than 30 days, private mentions
it did not ask for and silenced accounts are accepted, filtered or dropped. Filtered ones stay out of every list and
count unless asked for, gathered in a request per account; letting a request in lets that account in for good,
dismissing it deletes them. Everything is accepted until the persona chooses.
