* Revert "Fixes/do not override timestamps (#7331)"
This reverts commit 9c1e1005f4.
* Document Snowflake ID corner-case a bit more
Snowflake IDs are used for two purposes: making object identifiers harder to
guess and ensuring they are in chronological order. For this reason, they
are based on the `created_at` attribute of the object.
Unfortunately, inserting items with older snowflakes IDs will break the
assumption of consumers of the paging APIs that new items will always have
a greater identifier than the last seen one.
* Add `override_timestamps` virtual attribute to not correlate snowflake ID with created_at
- Rename Mastodon::TimestampIds into Mastodon::Snowflake for clarity
- Skip for statuses coming from inbox, aka delivered in real-time
- Skip for statuses that claim to be from the future
