Show history for edited toots

This should be done lazily rather than getting history for every toot that has been edited...

Does this need to be stored in the local store (indexeddb)? I'll have to figure that out if so...

The Mastodon interface mirrors the GitHub interface wherein there is an initial tooltip that then shows individual entries in a dialog:

It may be possible to add meta markers in the post, kind of how hashtags were invented, or how "likes" were done by Android's SMS tool up until a few months ago. Something like [edited from #35235] or [edit/15353]. Semaphore could pick that up and show an edit-train while non-semaphore clients would simply see the edit message and know its an edit. Just an idea. In general, I'm more of a fan of suggesting the edit paradigm to ActivityPub and have the format put in the spec (or maybe both?)

For this I think we'll use the Mastodon API for that side of things so it's more a matter of how we display the history.
